2010 Report on Prairie Oak Burns

• RENEWAL Thurston County

What is the Cascadia Prairie-Oak Partnership?

CPOP is a nascent umbrella group, which would provide a formalized framework for what is now a loose association of working groups (Oregon Oak Communities, South Sound Prairies (WA), North South Prairies (WA), Garry Oak Ecosystems Recovery Team (GOERT, Canada). The focus of these groups is to work together to share expertise, develop resources, coordinate planning, and implement effective conservation actions. All groups are interested in seeing CPOP provide initial coordination and information-sharing services at the ecoregional scale (e.g. listserv, website, conferences, workshops). Combining these groups while also maintaining the local focus of subgroups, allows us to improve efficiency (e.g., conservation planning and research) and coordinate prairie-oak conservation at larger landscape scale.
