Community Seed Collection
September 27 and October 4 - Community residents and Boy Scouts gathered at the Vehe Farm to collect prairie seeds. The seeds will be planted on the farm property later in the fall in order to continue the prairie restoration with native vegetation at Vehe. This will benefit species such as the wild bergamot, cup plant, rattlesnake master, tall coreopsis, penstemon, prairie sunflower, brown-eyes susans, purple coneflower, assorted grasses, and sedges by providing more habitat for them to naturalize.
