Sheep Hill Bluff Prairie – 2021

[To see photos and stories of this prairie in other years, go to the links on the main Sheep Hill Bluff Prairie page.]

This is the year we decided to restore this field.  Mike mowed it in August and it had greened up again by September.  We had it sprayed with glyphosate in mid-september.  In October and November I divided it with stakes so I could plant it later in the winter.
