| 8/25/20 |  Getting back to our roots: prairies do it best | On today's podcast, we're getting back to our roots with Justin Meissen with the Tallgrass Prairie Center in Iowa. We'll be digging deep and I mean really deep because we're talking about prairie roots, people! Some prairie roots have been documented to grow more than 14' into the ground and that's not even counting how far they can go horizontally! We'll learn more about the intricate underground world that makes prairies one of the most productive places on earth!

| 7/28/20 | A Legacy of Love for the Prairie Landscape: A Landowner's Perspective | Today's podcast is going to feature a very special prairie enthusiast, yes, we mean that literally.

They are groups of dedicated individuals who take their personal time to educate, protect, and restore prairie and savanna habitats in the Upper Midwest. In short, they're a prairie army equipped with drip torches, clippers, and knowledge. Just the kind of army you want when you're working to preserve this amazing landscape. We'll chat with prairie enthusiast and Minnesota landowner, Henry Panowitsch, about his experiences with the prairie and how he first fell in love with this incredible landscape.

| 12/24/19 | Holiday Bonus Episode! | Too many cookies, chilly weather, and frostbite already have you in a winter funk?

| 8/27/19 | The hills are ablaze (Restoration Series: Fire Management in Prairies) | Today's podcast is going to talk about prescribed fire! We call it prescribed because even though anyone who does fire management as part of their job loves the thrill of fire, these are controlled burns for the purpose of disturbance-based management. Prairies are a disturbance-based habitat, which means they need disturbance in order to persist. Without it, they will change into a forest or become overgrown with non-prairie species. Joe Blastick (TNC) and Chris Smith (MNDOT) will share their experiences with fire management and how we can use this tool more effectively to achieve healthy, functioning grasslands that have a diversity of wildlife using and living in them.

| 8/20/19 | How do I know if I'm doing a good job? (Prairie and Grassland Monitoring) | Today's podcast is going to talk about monitoring! It's hard to know where you're going if you don't know where you've been. We all know prairies change through time and that is a normal and natural process-albeit frustrating when you are trying to re-build them! Monitoring plays a key role in understanding what's happening on your site and how that piece of land is being affected by the surrounding landscape. Once you know that, then you have the incredibly difficult job of trying to decide what to do next and sometimes that right next step is the hardest thing of all...having patience while you let nature go through the magic and change of succession.

| 8/13/19 | Bringing Diversity Back, Baby (Restoration Series: Interseeding) | Today's podcast is going to talk about Interseeding! This is the practice of adding wildflowers or other missing guilds to an already established stand of grass. How can we bring lower diversity established stands of grasses up to a higher level of diversity that will ultimately benefit more species and help with grassland function? What we really want here is MORE FLOWERS. For resources and more details related to today's episode, find us on the web at mndnr.gov/prairiepod | — | ||||||
