Join Winnebago Audubon for our Nature's Potpourri Field Trips, held one per month, in June, July and August. Led by Anita Carpenter, the focus is to discover whatever nature presents including birds, flowers, trees, insects, and more. (Details for #2 and #3 will be in the next newsletter.)

Saturday, August 9:   9:00-11:00

This area is a 130 acre restored native prairie, oak savanna, and wetland habitat. Started in 1997, this restoration project is a partnership between Ripon College and Wisconsin DNR.

Directions: From Oshkosh, take State Road 44 to Ripon. At the 4-way stop sign at Eureka St., continue straight going west on Oshkosh St. to the stoplights at State Road 23 (Fond du Lac St.). Continue straight (south) on to Union St.  Turn right onto Merriman Lane and follow this road until you enter a parking lot. The entrance to the prairie will be on your right.
