Evening Prairie Walk: Thursday, July 30, 6:30pm-7:30pm
Join us for a quiet and enlightening evening walk in the Horicon Marsh prairies during peak bloom. Your guides will help you learn about plant identification, the importance of native prairies to the ecosystem, the role they play in pollinator habitat and the crucial nesting cover they provide for the marsh’s avian residents. You can also learn about establishing your own native prairie in your own backyard, no matter how big or small an area that you have available. We will go over soil preparation, garden establishment and the crucial weed management that follows. Please feel free to bring your camera and a notebook, along with plenty of bug spray!
