Liberty Prairie
Why Liberty Prairie?
Targeted preservation of natural and historical landscapes is an important goal across the United States. The United States is a beautiful place and we need to preserve certain areas for current and future generations to enjoy. Liberty Prairie Reserve, along with others across the Chicago area, does just that right here in Lake County. Additionally, the work that Liberty Prairie does with local educational systems cannot be overstated. Whether its farming, the environment, STEM related fields, or sports, kids should be exposed at an early age to gauge interests and set them up for success in the future. Through things like classroom trips, summer camps, after school adventures, and educational partnerships, Liberty Prairie is investing in the future of Lake County on a daily basis.
