The purpose of this community bike ride is to educate about our Loess Hills prairie heritage and feature a beautiful restored prairie in Mills County at the Archeological State Preserve. Participants will help tag migrating monarchs, help restore habitat by tossing milkweed and native nectar flower seedballs, and also help collect precious prairie seed. In addition to registration, we're also seeking sponsorships.
