If you want to plant prairie strips, we suggest you start with one of these two brochures:

  • For farmers: Farming with Prairie Strips
  • For farmland owners: A Landowner's Guide to Prairie Strips

These publications answer many initial questions we get from people interested in prairie strips. For more specific information, read:

  • The Cost of Prairie Strips
  • Installing Prairie Strips: Frequently Asked Questions
  • Installing and Managing Native Prairie Plantings
  • Planting Native Prairie into Corn and Soybean Stubble
  • Planting Native Prairie into Cool Season Sod (Brome, Orchard, Fescue, Bluegrass)
