Prairie Restoration and Management

Most prairies are degraded and in peril because native plants and grasses have been choked out and displaced by invasive plants and shrubs. Invasive vegetation outcompete native plants for space, sunlight and nutrients, creating an unattractive monoculture environment with very limited habitat for beneficial wildlife. Prairies restored with native plants and grasses are beautiful and diverse environments abounding with wildflowers and wildlife.
