About
The Bama Savanna is considered an Oak/Short Leaf Pine Savanna remnant with widely scattered, fire-adapted trees- all the Savanna components are still here in varying amounts. Over time, and with a lack of fire, native invasive trees, such as hickory, maple, sweet gum and Virginia Pine have grown out of their historic (wetter) territory and climbed up the slopes and are now literally choking out the Savanna species by sucking up the water, the sunlight and the nutrients.
We are a husband and wife, 2 years into managing and restoring our savanna on the Cumberland Plateau in north central Alabama. Our channel will show various TSI (timber stand improvement) techniques, tractor operation with wood chipper, stump grinder, flail mulcher, native trees, grasses and flowers, trail building and more. Somehow, along the way we plan to build a modern house on our bluff.
