Diverse and hardy mix of prairie grasses and wildflowers

Pocket Prairies are small wildlife and insect refuges. Seed banks for the future. Added to urban landscapes, native pocket prairies increase diversity of songbirds, bees, butterflies, and native wildlife. This mix of tall and short grasses and wildflowers is perfect in urbanized areas where natural habitat is limited.

Combine a DPAK of Pocket Prairie Mix with the delightfully illustrated children’s book, Plant a Pocket of Prairie. Prepare the soil, invite a child (or a few!) to help you out. Launch a festive, wonder-full Spring Planting Project. Watch it sprout and grow and diversify in the warm weeks & months to come. See if you can spot the weeds when they are young and tender, and easy to pull up! Learn what to pull up, and what to let be.

Plant seeds in a young person (or a few!) that might just grow into a lifetime of learning and caring.
