Our Fall Newsletter hit mailboxes last week! In this issue, we look back at the prairie restoration project at Saul Lake Bog Nature Preserve. A grassroots project in every sense, the prairie restoration was started by a single volunteer who saw the potential of an old field planted with a monoculture of non-native grass. Since then, hundreds of people have helped collect and sow seeds to expand this habitat, and our volunteer Prescribed Burn Crew has helped encourage the growth of native plants with periodic fire.

After 25 years of planting and expanding the restored tallgrass prairie at Saul Lake Bog Nature Preserve, we will plant the last remaining acres this fall.

We were grateful to recently host Outdoor Afro Grand Rapids and the Mayfly Project for a day exploring fly fishing at McDuffee Creek Nature Preserve! We kicked the day off at the preserve to learn casting techniques and how to tie our own flies. Then we ate lunch and headed upriver to the Green Cottage access to wade in and test our skills.

Thank you so much to @westmichiganmayflyproject and Outdoor Afro Grand Rapids for your collaboration on this fun event! 🎣
