June 5th, 2025. Frank delves into the Prairie Enthusiasts and Friends of the Blufflands with his guests Jim Rogala and Jon Rigden. They have an enlightened conversation on what comprises a prairie, especially the dwindling goat prairies that still adorn our bluff tops in the Driftless Region. The use of fire as a prairie management tool is discussed, how the native Americans employed it prior to the region being settled, and the importance of remnant species as vessels of our biodiversity genome.
