Description
For the past seven years this group has provided education and interpretive programs for the public, assisted in keeping the E. B. Lyons Center open, in trail construction, habitat improvement, developing displays and exhibits and hosting the Fall Seminar and winter programs.
Buchholtz has spent 8 years restoring a 270-acre field from crops, weeds and volunteer trees into prairie grasses and forbs. He also works with local schools and colleges to assist in prairie grass seed harvest and allows the students to take some seeds back to their schools to establish their own prairie.
Buchholtz works with the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) to exchange grass seeds needed for the DOT’s Living Roadway Trust Fund for forbs needed at Mines of Spain.
