This prairie was owned by Joseph A. Tauer whose “eccentric” farming practices preserved the virgin prairie portions of this SNA. Tauer used only horses until the 1980’s, and restricted his farming to the high, dry uplands of this property. The undisturbed prairie supports rare plant species among the prairie plants and animals
