"Minnesota Point has a rare dune system and sandy soils. It is the only place in Minnesota with the Atlantic coast species beachgrass that grows on dunes. The point’s red and jack pines, ferns and blueberry plants all rely on fire to stay healthy. Both sections to be burned include land designated by the state as a Scientific and Natural Area (SNA), meaning it has native plants and rare species."

A prescribed burn on Duluth’s beloved sandbar aims to help red pines regenerate.

The old days IV

If I remember it right this intervention was one of the first Jan Philip Scheibe and I realized together. We had just started dating and spend a lot of time roaming the Teutoburg Forest and Egge Range. And just made art for the sake of art. We took different pieces of common IKEA furniture such as GORM (shelving unit for basement) back to the forest to be reintegrated into the natural circuit. The gradual deterioration was constantly documented.
