Prairie in Your Pocket
Advertisement
Wildlife habitat isn't just in our parks. Your own yard can provide a place of refuge for butterflies, birds, and other wildlife...as well as yourself.
Prairie restoration begins as easily and as close to home as the flowers in your own backyard. You can create a pocket prairie in even the smallest space using plants which are native to our region. Bring your questions, and we'll share some ideas.
Who Is Invited:
This activity is open to ages 12 and up and is a seated program and discussion. Minors must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. No pets please.
Where to Meet:
Meet at the Exhibit Gallery, next to the Visitor Center.
Accessibility:
This activity is wheelchair-friendly. There is a paved path leading from the parking lots to the Gallery and Visitor Center. The Gallery has a wooden floor. There is an accessible restroom nearby.
If other ADA assistance is required, please request modifications by emailing [email protected] at least 30 days in advance.
How to Prepare:
Though the event is free, entrance fees to the Natural Area do apply. We often fill to capacity. To ensure entrance and save time at the Fee Booth, please pre-purchase and print out a day pass. Day passes can be reserved beginning one month before the date of your visit.
Dress comfortably for sitting outdoors. Bring at least 1 liter of water per person and a possibly a snack. You may want a notepad and pencil.
