Landowners
First, Prairie Partners thanks the owners of native prairie. They are the longstanding heroes because they have maintained their land as prairie. Some tracts in eastern Grand Forks County have been owned by the same family for five generations. They have had the foresight to realize that the salinity and wetness of their lands made them better suited for grazing and haying than for cropping. As native prairie disappears elsewhere, these tracts become ever more valuable.
