PrairieBlog: A Blog about Native Prairies and Grasslands

Avoca Prairie by Lisa Spangler <http://prairieblog.wumple.com/>Hello
Nature Friends!

I've created a prairie blog <http://prairieblog.wumple.com/> on
Wumple.com where you can read news about native prairies (tallgrass and
shortgrass), savannas, desert grasslands, and other native grasslands.

Check out PrairieBlog <http://prairieblog.wumple.com/> at
http://prairieblog.wumple.com/ the read current native prairie news!

(There is also a "Blog" link on the Native Prairies Association of Texas
<http://texasprairie.org/> web site that goes to the prairie blog too.)

PrairieBlog <http://prairieblog.wumple.com/> publishes and summarizes
news daily about native prairies and other grasslands, though it may
have slightly more tallgrass prairie news (since that is my favorite
type of native grassland) and Texas prairie news (since that is where I
am located and involved in prairie conservation, restoration, and
appreciation).

Some example topics include: prairie conservation and restoration,
native prairie plants, local ecotype native seed projects, grassland
birds, butterflies, ducks, bison, prairie art, culture and history
related to native prairie, carbon sequestration, cellulosic ethanol,
organizations working on prairie conservation and restoration, etc.

Echinacea by Lisa Spangler <http://prairieblog.wumple.com/>I hope
PrairieBlog <http://prairieblog.wumple.com/> will help educate more
people about native prairies, motivate people to work for prairie
conservation and restoration, help people keep informed of the latest
news and work in prairie conservation and restoration, and help people
involved with prairies network with each other.

Do you know of some native prairie, savanna, desert grassland, or other
native grassland related news? Then send it our way! Submit news by
emailing us at blog@... <mailto:blog@...>.

Also, please comment or leave feedback on the blog: We need the
motivation of seeing people read and use it! :-)

Thanks!
- Jason
