Meadow Mania

On Saturday the Houston Arboretum had 21 volunteers come out to help us plant 470 new prairie grasses and forbs in the meadow. The rain did not dampen our spirits and we had everything planted by 11:00. Species represented were Indian grass, Big bluestem, Canadian wild rye, Switch grass, Bushmint, Partridge pea and Chili pequin. Check out the photos in the album in Multimedia. Thanks to all those who came out to help.

What would you like to see at next year's State of the Prairie Conference?

So, now that the indoor session of the Prairie Conference has come and gone, what types of talks, workshops, activities, and/or hikes, would you like to see at next year's conference?

Thanks,

Jaime

Volunteer Seed Collecting + College Park Prairie

SaveOurPrairie.com - Help us save Deer Park Prairie (formerly College Park Prairie).

www.PrairieSeedCo.org - Prairie Seed Council.

Here is the latest update of our seed collecting activities.  Please join us to collect seeds and at the same time experience the prairie.  We are a collaborative venture with the goal to increase the amount and variety of coastal prairie plant materials including seeds.  

We are in the midst of a two year, intensive seed collecting effort to provide seeds for urban pocket plantings, volunteer grow outs, and most importantly provide source material for seed production at a large scale.
