Episode 53: Moely Prairie - In Their Own Words

Moely Prairie is the largest remnant of the 14,000-acre Sauk Prairie in Sauk County, Wisconsin. Because it has never been plowed, the prairie is home to a rich array of native prairie plants and animals. Permanently protected through a perpetual conservation easement by owner Barbara Moely in 2015, the prairie is managed and cared for by The Prairie Enthusiasts Empire-Sauk Chapter. In this episode of Nature Revisited, we learn- through the words of the aforementioned- of Moely Prairie's history, its ecological treasures, the challenges of its upkeep, and what lays in store for the future. *Read this episode’s write-up on The Prairie Enthusiasts blog.
