In the end we will conserve only what we love; we will love only what we understand; we will understand only what we have been taught.

Volunteer Restoration Work Parties

Please join us inside Badger as we continue to remove invasive species from remnant prairie and savanna sites and collect seed for our annual fall planting!  For our current Volunteer Restoration Work Party Schedule, please click here!

HOW OUR VOLUNTEER PROGRAM WORKS For each work day, please contact the group leader to confirm meeting location; we will then proceed from this location as a group. Due to access restrictions, volunteers must arrive by 9am and be able to stay until noon when we will return to the gate.

Activities may include cutting invasive shrubs, pulling mustard or other weeds, collecting seed, or creating a prairie nursery. 

Volunteers should always wear long pants, weather-appropriate clothing, closed-toe shoes, and bring drinking water.

Please note that access to the Badger Plant is limited by leader availability and the Army staff schedule. Please RSVP in advance!

If you are a business or community organization interested in sponsoring a Volunteer Restoration Workday, please register today!

Our Goals
Our mission statement and goals were developed as part of our strategic planning process in the spring of 2002, after incorporating as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
Volunteer
Work parties are a great way to meet others who are interested in conservation, the Sauk Prairie, or the Badger Army Ammunition Plant. It also presents a wonderful opportunity to learn more about Wisconsin's native prairie and savanna communities!
History of the Badger Lands
The history of the Badger Plant and the greater Sauk Prairie is an amalgam of many histories, beginning billions of years ago with the formation of some of the oldest and most durable rocks on earth...
Imagine!
Badger presents the opportunity to provide endless recreational pursuits for area residents, including hiking, photography, bicycling, cross-country skiing, and camping.
