How to Build a Prairie and Wild Yard in the Land of Riding Lawn Mowers

We bought our house in 1983 because we loved the yard with woods in the back and sun in the front and its infinite possibilites.  The yard was interesting because it had an extra deep well dug to make sure the first owners could keep the grass watered yet a part of the front yard was "early" meadow.  Join me as a I share our journey to create a yard that would be a place for wildlife, pollinators, people, and a place to show that your acre does not have to be all mowed grass to be beautiful.
