Tallgrass prairies and savanna landscapes once flourished throughout Southern Ontario. The Prairie Savanna Garden located on the south side of the Environment-1 building began as a senior honours thesis project. The garden helps to shed light on the conservation of prairie savanna landscapes, and offers visitors a lively display of native grasses and wildflowers. The garden continues to expand with ENVS 200 Field Ecology students planting wildflowers as part of their lab activities.
