We wanted to use the name Wild Prairie to invoke the possibilities of people, farms, and wildlife existing together as one. These three entities are not mutually exclusive—they can all exist harmoniously. Part of our practice is to strive towards that harmony. We recognize that wildlife (small animals, bugs, birds, fungus, bacteria, etc) are an important part of our farm and lives, not “things” that need to be eradicated or heavily controlled. We use the name Wild Prairie to remember our connection to this earth.
