Fall Prairies at Faville Grove

  • Faville Grove Sanctuary W7480 Prairie Lane Lake Mills, WI, 53551 United States (map)

This outing has been rescheduled for September 29 due to weather.

Prairies in fall can be spectacularly beautiful.  On this trip you will immerse yourself in the textures, colors, sounds, and smells of fall at Faville Grove. We will meet by the Kiosk at W7480 Prairie Lane, Lake Mills, and then tour the Prairie Lane restorations and take in the fall landscape with its autumn colors including late blooming wildflowers (such as gentians, asters, and goldenrods), talk about the role of seed collecting in our restorations, and more.

This trip is part of Gathering Waters’ Land Trust Days, celebrating Wisconsin’s wealth of protected lands and waters made possible by land trusts like Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance and supporters like you. Please join us!
