Yesterday was a wild day. While working at a property just south of the Hydra Fire, the fire jumped the containment line late in the afternoon as RH went down and winds picked up. The entire town of Meridian went under an evacuation order.

Our greenhouse and nursery are to the north of the fire, just close enough to be concerning. We high-tailed it back to start hardening the site, shuffle equipment around, and fill water trailers.

Life comes at you fast, you never know what it’s going to bring each day. Our prayers go out to the VFDs working the line and to the folks in Meridian who are back home but could have another evac order dropped this afternoon, if things pick back up.

It’s the big day! We’re all set up at the Stewards of the Wild Annual Dove Hunt (can’t believe it’s been a year already), come see us.

Great turnout already; if you haven’t already, you need to sign up with SOTW and come hang out with everybody 🤘🏻

Celebrating and supporting the FW Nature Center & Refuge. This is a ~3,600 acre crown jewel of DFW, go visit if you haven’t been there yet.

Dr. Jared Wood and his team are doing yeoman’s work in improving and preserving this confluence of prairie, cross timber, and wetland habitats. Their hard work shows at every point throughout the preserve.

The organization is also supported in the background by a carrier strike group of Fort Worth’s most interesting and accomplished citizens.

It was a privilege to have TPC represented at the event. Eager to support the Center’s mission for years to come.

Twenty feet of native plants are on their way to the Tarrant Regional Water District HQ in Fort Worth! They need more volunteers to assist with planting on Thursday. Festivities begin around 10am. More info in the comments below.

TRWD is building a model prairie at their main campus so we’re showing up with a crop of native grasses. We have some forbs in there, too, but the focus is on grasses and a low-grow border (B. dactyloides, H. belangeri).

Come see the TRWD campus (tons of native landscaping!) and help us get these plants in the ground!!

Trinity Prairie Nursery is live 💪🏻
