The Prairie Ecologist is now a live blog. I’ve been writing posts for weeks now, building content. I hope you find something that interests you. Scroll down to see the full range of posts.
Wonderful beginnings here Chris! I’ve been reading up on prairie establishment in several places, thinking that within a few years I’ll be able to purchase a sizable acreage to convert. Right now, I have to settle for my 2,000 foot Lincoln garden where I try to use as many native plants as I can, even though it’s not prairie like (it is a garden, after all). I suppose it’s more book research than anything. Anyway, I’ll keep reading, glad to have found you.
Thanks! Have you seen the Guide to Prairie Restoration in Eastern Nebraska? You can download it from PrairieNebraska.org or PrairiePlains.org. It is a great resource for seed lists, techniques, and other challenges/questions you might have.
