Demonstration Garden

With generous support from a wonderful community of specialists including Elliott Duemler, Peggy Schultz, Katie Sadler, Courtney Masterson, Kim Bellemere, Carol Williamson, and many others, Free State Students harvested and cleaned prairie seeds, germinated and grew plants in the greenhouse, and then planted those seedlings in the Demonstration Garden in the spring of 2014.  Signs were added to help students and visitors identify plants.  Thanks to Kelly Kindscher, Craig Freeman, and Kirsten Boznak for their help designing and placing the signs.

Free State Prairie is open to the public every day between dawn and dusk. The prairie is located on the NW corner of the property behind the football stadium.  Enter through the main athletics entrance and follow the wide sidewalk around behind the stadium.  At the end of the sidewalk, head across the lawn to the northwest toward the shelter and shed.
