Walker Prairie donated to Winnebago County Conservation Board
A Clear Lake family's gift of 29 acres north of Pilot Knob State Park will be preserved and opened to the public as Walker Prairie. The land, enrolled in the Wetland Reserve Program, features restored wetlands, upland prairie and wildlife habitat. Future plans include a water control structure, prairie preservation, tree removal, and a small parking area. The donation was unanimously approved at the Oct 10 WCCB meeting and the property will be publicly listed and accessible for archery hunting, nature study, photography, and hiking.
