NorthPointe is planning a Prairie Plant Rescue with the assistance of the Wild Ones of Rock River Valley.
The Wild Ones are a not-for-profit environmental education and advocacy organization which promotes environmentally sound landscaping practices to preserve biodiversity through the preservation, restoration, and establishment of native plant communities.
A portion of our prairie planting will be impacted by the future ASTC on the south side (Health side) of the main building, with ground breaking most likely in early spring.
All of the plants are sun-loving prairie plants and include Ironweed, Prairie Bush Clover, Black Eyed Susan, Stiff Goldenrod, Whorled Milkweed, Compass Plant, Hoary Vervain, False Boneset, New England Aster, Bergamot, Big Bluestem Grass, Little Bluestem Grass, Indian Grass, Sedges and a few other species.
Please bring your own shovels, trowels, gloves and containers. Plastic grocery bags work well for temporary containers.
