Beautiful! Speaks so clearly to my heart. Coincidentally am now reading again Aldo Leopold’s “ A Sand Country Almanac “ and dog eared his often quoted passage , lamenting: “Man always kills the thing he loves, and so we pioneers have killed our wilderness . Some may say we had to. Be that as it may, I am glad I shall never be young without wild country to be young in . Of what avail are forty freedoms without a blank spot on the map?”
Restoration is near and dear to my heart where on my little oasis the Mamou plant , Louisiana iris, Indian Pinks , Blue Flox thrive . Native grasses have been reintroduced and just completed a Coastal Prairie planting on a couple of acres … all intertwined and surrounded by old growth hardwoods .
And yes , this Cajun Prairie “ is filled with hope.”
