After returning from training, the team dove right in to working in the field. Everyone was excited to put their newly acquired skills to work. It was a gratifying experience meshing all of our previous knowledge and education with this new endeavor in conservation. The team learned how to work as a cohesive unit while sawing, lopping, and applying herbicide to non-wetland plants such as willows, cottonwoods, grape vines, and other assorted shrubs.
