Ute Ladies’ Tresses Orchid Monitoring
Special Event
Bear River Land Conservancy is seeking community volunteers of all ages that want to help us conduct our annual monitoring of Ute Ladies’ Tresses. Monitoring events will occur on Friday evenings beginning July 28th through early September. Each Friday, we will meet at 6 p.m. at ~5400 W, 1800 S in Mendon. Please wear long sleeve shirts, pants, and sturdy shoes. Ute Ladies’ Tresses are a threatened perennial flowering orchid found in open wetland and riparian micro-habitats, are mostly pollinated by bumblebees, and are dependent on mycorrhizal fungi. As part of our efforts to manage Mendon Meadows Preserve and to protect this rare orchid, Bear River Land Conservancy conducts annual monitoring and established a pollinator garden in 2022. For more information on Ute Ladies’ Tresses see the following resources: https://plants.usda.gov/DocumentLibrary/plantguide/pdf/pg_spdi6.pdf https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/8d9e23d0c90e4a978fa6110f266b1f7f
