We need your help!
Our goal is to turn the surrounding farmland (over 200 acres) at Westport Prairie into native prairie. Every year, we take more than 5 acres of farmland out of use and plant native flowers and grasses in its place. With each prairie we plant, our seed source grows which means the size of our plantings will also grow. In 2023, we planted 6.5 acres. This year, we will plant 7.5 acres, and 9.5 acres next year.
This year will be our biggest planting at Westport Prairie and that means we’ll need more seed!
Come join us to collect seed to restore Westport Prairie and be a part of conservation where you live.
