This year’s theme plays on the fact that Nygren Wetland Preserve is a birding hotspot. Join us for this unique fundraiser for Nygren Wetland Preserve.

Reserve your place by July 12, 2024.

Party on the Prairie provides an elegant outdoor dinner party under a big tent overlooking the prairie. The stunning landscape includes blooming midsummer wildflowers with butterflies and dragonflies fluttering about and grassland birds flying around and perching atop silphiums and coneflowers. American White Pelicans and Sandhill Cranes are often seen soaring overhead toward the wetland.

The event begins with horse drawn wagon rides through the prairie. During the social hour guests may enjoy a signature drink, cash bar and appetizers while listening to lively music. A nature themed silent auction will be open from the time guests arrive through the end of the full service sit-down dinner catered by GreenFire Restaurant.
