Programs and Projects

Wildlife Improvement Habitat Project

More evidence of the good our club does can be found at the Audubon National Wildlife Refuge where we are helping to restore 44 acres of degraded dense nesting cover (DNC) into a 28 species native plant community surrounding the new visitor's center. Four wetland basins located in the tract will be restored to obtain their appearance prior to human disturbance. The proximity of the restoration site to the office/visitor center will also provide the opportunity to use the native seeding to educate youth and adults on the grassland/wetland restoration process and the importance of native grassland communities to wildlife and the environment. A dedication ceremony picture is below.

PFTF Sponsored/Co-Sponsored Habitat Projects (Open to Public Hunting)

We are always looking for ways to help landowners develop and improve suitable habitat for pheasants and wildlife that is accessible to public hunting. We assist landowners with cost-sharing programs to plant trees and food plots. Click to view a list of our sponsored/co-sponsored Habitat projects.
