As you know, we've been working for years to build up a new local and national conservation culture for prairies — America's most endangered and least protected ecosystem — and we're lately seeing a lot of progress.
Our work for the Fort Worth Prairie Park, and GPRC's Ecological Health education model, serves as the epicenter for prairies, people and other ecosystems elsewhere.
Please support, and share this as widely as you can so more people know about this important effort.
A broad coalition is working toward preserving several thousand acres in a system of parks and preserves for generations of people and wildlife.
The 10,000 year old Fort Worth Prairie ecosystem, once 1.3 million acres and critical to America's central migration of grassland nesting birds, Monarch butterflies, and other wildlife, is now one of the most endangered ecosystems in North America.
The Fort Worth Prairie also helps protect water quality along the Upper Trinity River, which flows down through Texas toward Galveston and the Gulf of Mexico.
Protecting enough of the Fort Worth Prairie to survive and thrive long term improves wellness for millions of people, and countless wildlife.
Also, by providing easily-accessible outdoor opportunities for people to experience and get to know wild prairie, it builds new support for larger landscape-scale conservation efforts farther out on the buffalo and prairie dog plains.
Great Plains Restoration Council does conservation through people.
More to come. Thank you as always for your support!
