Returning 510 acres back into the mosaic of forests, wetlands, and prairies that once covered this land
Mequon Nature Preserve is in the process of returning the land back into the mosaic of forests, wetlands, and prairies that once covered the land. This vital work helps clean the air and water while supporting biodiversity in the various habitats we create.
