Situated amid some of Wisconsin’s most critical natural areas, and harboring important populations of rare and declining plant and animal species, the Badger lands provide a one-time-only opportunity for innovative conservation partnerships.


By combining large-scale prairie and savanna restoration, with research and education, historical preservation, sustainable agriculture, and recreation, the Badger Reuse Plan seeks to integrate many components of land use in the same place at the same time. The goal is to honor the history of the site and enhance its inherent conservation values, while at the same time recognizing and acting upon this unique opportunity to create something entirely new!
