Turn Back the Pages of History to Create a Truly Green Tomorrow
At Prairie Restorations, Inc. (PRI), we specialize in a distinctively different form of landscaping that relies entirely on nature’s original, centuries-old designs. If you share our passion for superior aesthetics and unsurpassed sustainability for our regional lands, we invite you to explore with us a time when indigenous plantings grew wild and beautiful as far as Native American eyes could see.
Imagine an environmentally pristine time when our Upper Midwest lands were under the sole care of America’s tribal inhabitants; men, women, and even children who embodied an instinctual respect for the laws and creations of nature. Envision a day before progress and civilization damaged the earth in ways that once would have been judged to be unthinkable.
A Globally Green Solution
When we first opened our doors in 1977, all of us at PRI knew it was time for America to discover and embrace a designed by nature, indigenous plant landscape that can actually contribute to the healing of our planet. Years before the word ‘green’ had become synonymous with the environment, we started our business as an ultra-green, Minnesota-based company that now offers its well-known and respected services from multiple office locations in four states.
We believe our success is the direct result of our unwavering dedication to using only historically authentic plantings, a common sense approach to land management that has grown in popularity around the world. All of us at PRI heartily welcome this new, global awareness of the truly green benefits of very low to no maintenance, native plant landscapes. As an immediate and significant advantage, landowners can eliminate their grounds keeping crew and the noisy, air polluting machines these costly workers rely on. We want our good friends and neighbors to know about all of the many rewards of choosing an indigenous plant landscape that is ideally suited for:
- Open prairie or wetlands
- Public or private recreation areas
- Corporate landscaping solutions
- Retail outlet or institutional grounds landscaping
- Residential projects large or small
- Agricultural applications and more
We’ve Learned a Lot Since 1977
We discovered early on that successfully recreating evolution’s most perfect landscape designs could be as complex and mysterious as nature itself. Our regional lands have taught us countless, meticulously documented and archived lessons that tell us there will always be something new to know. With over three decades of experience behind us, we’ve learned for certain that indigenous plant landscapes restore, sustain, and beautify our region in an extraordinary way that cannot be equaled. We have completed thousands of native plant landscapes, and if you would like to view some of the outstanding results for yourself, we invite you to visit our online gallery of selected completed projects.
One Size Fits All
Our painstakingly researched and botanically authentic landscape designs reflect an earlier, far greener day that can be revisited in the 21st century. We believe our unsurpassed brand of land restoration/beautification offers everything countless property owners and managers have been searching for, including superior scalability for land parcels of all types and sizes. From vast tracts of open prairie and wetlands to the most intimate, urban green space, PRI is there.
It’s the Work. . .Not the Commerce that Matters
All of us at PRI are fully committed to an ongoing quest designed to discover and utilize more of nature’s secrets, hard-earned achievements we choose not to keep to ourselves. We take pride in the fact that we have extensive, hands in the soil experience related to our craft, accumulated knowledge we will freely share with any individual who will use it to install native plants in any green space. At PRI, we believe that it’s time to put personal considerations and individual business gains aside while we all contribute to the healing of our increasingly imperiled planet. Whether PRI is directly involved in a landscaping project or not, it’s the good and green works that truly matter.
