Conservation and Land Management

Ault Park Advisory Council is working closely with the Cincinnati Parks Conservation & Land Management Team on forest restoration. One of the first things that has been identified as a priority is trail clearance. This involves cutting back invasive plants such as honeysuckle, privet, and burning bush and treating the stumps. Parks staff and Trained Service Persons will provide an orientation and direct the work.

Northside Greenspace Inc. is an all-volunteer, nonprofit organization founded to identify, preserve and restore natural areas in Northside and surrounding Cincinnati, Ohio communities.

Tree Shepherds Ohio/Mount Airy Forest Division, a member of Mount Airy Forest Advisory Committee (MAFAC: Cincinnati Parks Advisory Council or CPAC), will be working in close collaboration with Cincinnati Parks Conservation & Land Management Team on land restoration on the eastern half of Mt. Airy Forest Park. 

This area is bounded in the west by I-74, Colerain Avenue in the east, Shepherd Creek Road and West Fork Road in the north and south, respectively.

Join our team for one date or all of them. We will restore our beautiful native forest by killing invasive plants or stopping their spread. From late Fall through Winter and early Spring we'll cut and stack bush honeysuckle and other woody invasives. In Spring we'll pull and bag garlic mustard. In late Summer and early Fall we’ll pull and bag Japanese stilt grass and Japanese chaff flower, and throughout the year we may engage in other habitat restoration projects. This will usually be off trail in wooded, often hilly terrain.
