Prairie Alive In October At Manitoba Tall Grass Prairie Preserve

A Manitoba Tall Grass Prairie Preserve feature describes grass heights up to two metres, the impact of spring burns on grassland health, and benefits for birds and butterflies. It notes prescribed burns planned this fall to curb aspen encroachment, and highlights the preserve's location near Gardenton and its 6000 acre extent. The piece celebrates biodiversity including rare plants like the western prairie fringed orchid and Dakota skipper, and credits the Nature Conservancy of Canada with land stewardship alongside partners Manitoba Conservation and others.
