Native Prairie Restoration: KU Native Plant Medicinal Garden

In the spring of 2022, I organized a prairie restoration project with the help of Kelly Kindscher at University of Kansas, Native Medicinal Plants Research Garden. I organized a burn of an area of the garden which had been encroached by small woody shrubs and trees. In the weeks after the burn several seed bombing making workshops, I invited the public to participate in the renewal of this space. Together we talked about the tall grass prairie’s history as a landscape which co-evolved with humans and fire and the prairie’s future as an example of positive human/nature coexistence.
