Love in the Prairie State

Here we go again with another Illinois “Prairie State” prairie about to be lost. Don’t let what happened to Bell Bowl Prairie happen here. Please help!
“A prairie in Monroe County, Illinois, is about to be lost forever.
Less than 1% of Illinois’ prairies are left in our beautiful prairie state – and only 600 acres of hill prairies (i.e., prairies on bluffs like this one) remain. That’s smaller than New York’s Central Park.”

This is what fall looks like where I come from.
