# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Prairie Walk and Talk
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 14 Sep, 2025 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: Embark on a fascinating journey through the remnant prairie grass as we collect prairie seeds. We will explore along the Headingley Grand Trunk Trail, guided by passionate Ecologist Bryana Nicholas.

You'll delve into the intriguing world of native prairie grasses, discover the reasons behind their alarming decline across North America, and learn what you can do to help protect the small patches which remain.

Bryana will guide you through the grasses and teach you how to identify the beautiful plants which flourish within this resilient ecosystem. They will also share stories about how people used these plants to cure toothaches and mosquito bites and what can be done to protect and restore this valuable ecosystem.

Some of the plants you will spot are:
Prairie Sage
Snowberry
Goldenrod
Meadow Blazing Star
native Sunflowers
Prairie Smoke
Dwarf Milkweed
Prairie Wool
Purple Crowfoot Violet
The plants are in constant evolution so visit often to see how the grasses change from month to month, and season to season.
This small field of remnant prairie was discovered on the southern tip of Alboro Street in Headingley by the HGTT association in 2016 and subsequently recognized by Manitoba Conservation.

This stretch of prairie grass has endured the onslaught of development and the operation of the rail line from 1894 to 1972, along with the progressive growth of the Headingley community. Rolling hills of native prairie grass once covered enormous swathes of not just the Manitoba landscape, but also vast expanses of North America. Today, sadly, less than 1% of this valuable and important natural landscape survives across the continent.

This guided walk will last approximately 1.5 hours. We'll meet at the south end of Alboro Street in Headingley.
