Southern Ontario prairies need fire to flourish, and a place to grow

Alderville First Nation's tallgrass prairie is a pocket within woodlands and farm fields that would be lost if not for restoration efforts such as cultural fire.

La prairie à herbes hautes de la Première Nation d’Alderville est une enclave au milieu des zones boisées et des champs agricoles qui disparaîtrait sans les efforts de restauration, tels que le feu culturel.
