Hurstville Prairie Plant Walk

Do you like native plants? Do you want to explore one of the highest-quality prairies around? On Saturday, June 28 at 5:00 pm join Ray Hamilton, Jackson County Conservation Ecologist Tony Vorwald, and the Iowa Prairie Network to experience the Hamilton (Codfish Hollow) prairie. Hamilton Prairie is located across the road from Codfish Hollow Barnstormer’s parking lot 35th St &, 288th Ave, IA 52060. Ray and Tony will share their knowledge of prairie ecology on a guided hike through the prairie. This area has been managed as a local biological preserve for 37 years and is home to a unique and diverse set of native plants. Participants come dressed for the conditions, wear long pants, and bring a bottle of water.
