A prairie and woodland restoration workshop was held by the Fayette Prairie Chapter of the Native Prairies Association of Texas on Oct. 29 at the Weimar Civic Center. It was a full-day workshop led by experts from Texas A&M University AgriLife Extension Service, Texas Parks and Wildlife, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service. A series of talks in the morning was followed by a field trip to a local property that is currently undergoing restoration. There were approximately 40 attendees from Fayette and other nearby counties.
