                        Winter 2012: Rare and Invasive Species at Greylock Glen Biodrawversity  has been working with the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and  Recreation (DCR) since 2008 to document rare and invasive plant species at the  1,064-acre Greylock Glen property in Adams, MA. Our initial survey found 21  state-listed or watch-listed plant species on the property. Since then, we have  worked closely with DCR and the Massachusetts Natural Heritage and Endangered  Species Program to protect these rare plants. For example, we provided guidance  during the development of an improved trail system throughout the property. Our  efforts have also included mapping invasive species on the property, developing  an invasive species management plan, and continued monitoring of invasive  species control work on site.  Biodrawversity is an ecological consulting firm located in the Pioneer Valley of western Massachusetts. Our company specializes in conducting rigorous surveys and studies of rare plant and animal species for clients throughout northeastern North America.  |
