Oak ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest are among the most biodiverse of their kind. These groves support hundreds of plant and animal species that depend on them for denning habitat and sustenance. But due to threats including conifer crowding oaks, climate and extreme fire, and conversion to other land use, oak ecosystems are in trouble. Did you know that some estimates suggest we’ve lost 50% or more of our historic oak ecosystems?
To continue this legacy of stewardship, partners of the Klamath Siskiyou Oak Network conduct oak restoration and research at the Table Rocks. After decades of collaborative work, over 1,000 acres of oak groves and savanna have been restored!
The Klamath Siskiyou Oak Network invites you to join local oak experts at the Table Rocks for a free educational hike. Come learn about the ecocultural history of this landscape, explore past and current restoration efforts, and discover the benefits of prescribed fire in oak ecosystems. You’ll also hear about other oak restoration projects happening throughout the Rogue River Valley and the importance of conserving this precious ecosystem.
