Reed Canary Grass-a-thon

Description

Spruce Lake Bog State Natural Area is one of the most southerly bogs in Wisconsin. The site is rich in plants more characteristic of northern Wisconsin sphagnum bogs. It was designated a state natural area in 1968.  It contains a variety of sedges, shrubs and herbaceous plants and there is a boardwalk that leads to the 35-acre lake. 

For many years, reed canary grass has been spreading into the bog. After four years of volunteer efforts, we are seeing a return of many more orchids, ferns and other unique plants along the boardwalk.
