Good Oak Ecological Services

Good Oak Ecological Services Repairing damaged ecosystems, creating environmentally sustainable human landscapes. We conduct prescribed fires to rejuvenate these fire dependent ecosystems.

We work in the fields of ecological restoration and sustainable landscaping. The goal of sustainable landscaping is to manage our human environment in a way that benefits the natural community. A cornerstone of our business is that we work exclusively with plants native to southern Wisconsin. All of our landscaping projects are designed with an eye towards water conservation. Rain gardens, bio-swa

les, and more subtle landscape features help rain water infiltrate close to where it falls rather than becoming part of the urban run-off that pollutes our stream and lakes. We work largely with local stone to both reflect the character of our region and also to reduce the pollution associated with shipping heavy stone long distances. Ecological restoration is the process of repairing damage done to natural areas by human activities. With modern pressures such as development, climate change and invasive species affecting our natural systems, just about every “natural” area needs management to prevent degradation - most people just don't realize it. We remove invasive species from woodlands, prairies, wetlands, and backyards. We spread native plants back into degraded natural environments by planting and spreading seeds. And we control erosion on shorelines and slopes using biodegradable erosion matting and planting deep rooted prairie plants to hold and rebuild the soil.

Huge shout out to our hardworking burn crew. Through our first solid week of burn season we were able to get through over 300 acres across more than 40 properties restoring good fire to the land. After a brief rest this weekend we will be back at it next week.
