Informal Intro to the Prairie 6.22

Over the past few years, the township grew a replica of the old Harris Prairie, all six instances of which disappeared over time. We also planted a small Oak and Hickory savannah, reminiscent of one that existed onsite at Elm Road and State Road 23 (aka at one time known as Edwardsburg Highway, and before that an Indian trail).

On Monday June 22nd at 6:45pm, at the new observation area overlooking the prairie, Steve Sass (naturalist) and township representatives will be available to discuss the project and history of the parcel. The prairie should be coming into bloom. Parking at the park, or across the street at the church. Limited seating is available on rocks, so feel free to bring a chair. Weather-permitting, of course.
