Forgotten Grasslands of the Southeast
Hosted by Wild Ones Roanoke Region ChapterPublic Welcome Free Event Chapter Meeting Program/Speaker Presentation Wheelchair Accessible Public Restroom Free Public Parking Drinking Fountains
Grassland loss is the single greatest conservation issue currently facing eastern North American biodiversity. Our precious Southeastern grasslands are nearly extinct and the species that depend on them are fading fast. Many of our Southeastern grasslands that managed to persist through the past 200 years have disappeared in the past quarter-century. Cities such as Charlotte, Chattanooga, Huntsville, Montgomery, Nashville, Raleigh-Durham, Richmond, and Tallahassee, among others, are as much "grassland cities" as Austin, Fort Worth, and Tulsa.
Alaina Krakowiak of the Southeastern Grassland Institute will discuss the importance of Southeastern Grasslands to our ecosystems, what's being done to preserve them, and how you can help.
