2013-2-2: Iowa Prairie Network Region 5 Annual Meeting
Our annual Winter Meeting will be Feb. 2, DMACC Ankeny Building 7. This year our silent auction beneficiary will be two State Preserves - Rolling Thunder and Marietta Sand Prairie. Auction proceeds will pay for development of management plans for these two preserves, and also fund some on-site work days by the Conservation Corps. We hope to do more of this kind of partnership with the Iowa DNR State Preserves, this is our trial run. The main presentation day will be a sort of "top 10 prairie questions" we hear from folks getting started with prairies, with follow-up displays on such topics as creating a seed mix, dealing with invasive species, evaluating a developing prairie stand etc. There will also be a tribute/review of the work done by the Living Roadway Trust Fund, and the usual room full of conservation displays by artists and organizations. Join us! Doors open at 11, presentation starts at Noon.
