[image: Prairie-2]Just down the road from the institute is the
Danky-Schelshorn Prairie. Until 2003, this land was under agricultural
cultivation, but Jim and Christine decided to turn it back into a prairie
habitat. The Danky-Schelshorn Prairie was established when Christine took a
workshop at the UW Arboretum. Through their friendship with Steve Glass,
they accelerated the restoration work and today have a quite mature prairie
to share with others. In 2019, they donated the prairie to the Historic
Cooksville Trust and, in conjunction with the Low Technology Institute in
Cooksville, are hosting it's first public event.
Christine and Jim will be on hand to talk about the history and maintenance
of the prairie, as well as answering questions about our solar installation.
Workshop Details
[image: prairie-3.png]In this workshop, we'll spend time on the prairie
collecting seeds and exploring prairie ecology. You'll learn to collect
seeds from various species and will go home with your own samples!
Please wear clothing appropriate for the weather and activity: close-toed
shoes, gloves, long shirt and pants, etc. We'll have light refreshments
available, but feel free to bring your own as well. We will be outside
unless the weather is particularly bad, in which case we'll hold the
workshop on Sunday, October 20th. Please bring along hand pruners or
clippers if you have them (we'll have some on hand, too).
The workshop will take place at the Danky-Schelshorn Prairie (261
Wisconsin 138, Stoughton, Wisconsin <https://goo.gl/maps/edWc1PSWMTippxdX8>)
(25 min south of Madison) on October 19, from 1:00--4:00 p.m. It is free,
but please RSVP by sending an email to info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Space is
limited and we will keep a waiting list. Also, participants must fill out this
liability waiver
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1ACDxOcwvUCoDmI1y7w8lZWEW9zlYXDnVDAXc0RvC98Y/viewform?edit_requested=true>.
Your RSVP is only complete when the waiver is filled out.
