SUMMARY:Prairie Potluck! Brunch and Learn in Pepin County
DESCRIPTION:About the Event \n\n\n\nCome tour a prairie side-by-side with Conservation Coach Sally Farrar\, natural resource professionals\, and neighbors that can build our knowledge of prairies\, prairie establishment and restoration. Sally Farrar\, a passionate prairie steward from Pepin County\, will lead a hike through her personal prairie and explain the process in regards to seed selection\, pollinators and native grasses\, drilling vs. tilling\, prairie burns and more. Learn about specific grasses\, pollinators\, wildflowers\, grassland birds and other biodiversity that prairies foster. The event is free of charge\, but we ask you bring a dish to pass. Registration is required. \n\n\n\nSally Farrar is a Conservation Coach with the WiWiC project and also own 72 acres is Pepin County including a mix of open\, forested and prairie. Her curiosity about conservation\, along with some initial inspiration having observed and participated in the restoration with Cynthia Lane\, fueled her own initiative to restore a 13-acre prairie and go on to add more pollinator habitat in future years. She says\, “The path of conservation can become a way of being\, often a quiet and unseen mission that can lead to great personal reward and fulfillment.” \n\n\n\nOthers will be invited to share their conservation experiences as well. Please bring a chair\, a water bottle\, and a dish and/or beverage to share.  If you are interested in conservation opportunities for your land\, this is the gathering for you to bring curiosity and questions! \n\n\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by Michael Fields Agricultural Institute and Renewing the Countryside.
