Prairie Grass Restoration at Sheldon Lake

Community volunteers from area corporations, schools, and nature groups chose to spend a recent Saturday morning contributed to North Channel’s biggest prairie grass restoration event. Native grasses such as Big Bluestem, Little Bluestem, Eastern Gammagrass and Switchgrass were planted in a three-acre plot at Sheldon Lake State Park as part of an ongoing restoration effort to attract native birds and other wildlife to the area.
