In 2007, the 160 acre Edger Waterfowl Production Area was acquired. In 2008, hedge rows were removed and former hay fields were converted to a mixture of native grasses and wildflowers. In 2010, 4 acres of wetlands were enhanced and restored for waterfowl production. The area contains 69 acres of grassland, 25 acres of wetlands and 66 acres of upland forest and other habitat. The mixture of wetlands and grasslands provides high quality nesting and brood rearing habitat for ducks such as mallards and wood ducks, geese, a variety of grassland songbirds and pollinator habitat for the monarch and other native bee species.

Edger Waterfowl Production Area is jointly managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.
