Nature and You Lecture: The Jepson Prairie Reserve
Join Kate Mawdsley, a long-time coordinator of the docent program at the Jepson Prairie Reserve for a talk about the reserve and the upcoming walking tours being held there.
Located south of Dixon in Solano County, the Jepson Prairie Reserve is an island of remnant natural prairie in a wide alluvial floodplain used primarily for agriculture. The reserve protects one of the best few remaining vernal-pool habitats, which are found only in the western United States and few other places in the world, as well as precious remnants of native bunchgrass prairie that once covered one-fourth of California.
