Prairie Guardians
At Prairie Guardians, our mission is to restore and protect the natural environment by partnering with local communities, farmers, and conservationists to create sustainable prairie strips that serve as wildlife corridors, protect waterways, and provide recreational spaces. By building a network of interconnected habitats, including bike trails and electric vehicle charging stations, we aim to foster harmony between agriculture, wildlife, and human activity. Our efforts help sequester carbon, conserve precious topsoil, and support biodiversity, all while offering outdoor spaces for people to enjoy and connect with nature. Prairie Guardians is dedicated to creating vibrant ecosystems that support both environmental and community health, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. We work with farmers and communities in the United States and around the world. Check out our Product Shop to help our mission.

For Farmers
Prairie strips, offer a win-win solution for farmers and the environment, transforming fields into thriving ecosystems. Supported by scientific research, our commitment ensures sustainable agriculture, benefiting current and future generations. We are always looking for other methods to help farmers with conservation, especially our international farming partners.
Competition
At Prairie Guardians, we raise funds for the prairie strips by running a season long competition. Contestants will be sponsoring a parcel of land in the prairie strips. For the competition, the contestants will be doing activities to earn points during the competition season. The person with the most points at the end of the season will win the grand prize. For the first competition, we will give away an all expenses paid trip to XCaret Resort in Mexico
