Transform open ground into a more attractive, diverse, and wildlife-friendly part of your property.
At Pro Plots, we provide professional wildflower and prairie grass installation in Green Lake, Wisconsin and surrounding areas for landowners who want to improve wildlife habitat, establish native cover, reduce maintenance, and add long-term value to their land.
As a local father-and-son operated business, we work directly with landowners to plan, prepare, seed, and maintain prairie grass and wildflower areas based on the goals of the property.
Whether you want better wildlife cover, pollinator habitat, visual screening, a native prairie area, or simply a more natural look for part of your land, Pro Plots can help you create a plan and get the work done.
Native Prairie & Wildflower Areas Built for Your Property
Every property is different.
Soil type, drainage, sunlight, existing vegetation, acreage, surrounding habitat, and long-term maintenance goals all affect how a prairie or wildflower planting should be approached.
That is why Pro Plots starts with the property itself.
We can help determine where native grasses or wildflowers make the most sense and how those areas can fit into your broader land and habitat management plan.
Our goal is to create plantings that are not only attractive, but also useful for wildlife and practical for the landowner.
Prairie Grass Installation
Native prairie grasses can provide valuable structure and cover across a property.
Depending on the location and goals of the landowner, prairie grass plantings may help create:
Prairie grasses can also be a strong option for areas that are currently difficult to maintain or underused.
Pro Plots can help with site selection, preparation, seeding, and ongoing maintenance to help establish a healthy stand.
Wildflower Installation
Wildflower areas can add color and visual appeal while also creating valuable habitat for pollinators and other wildlife.
Depending on the property, wildflower plantings may help support:
-
Bees
-
Butterflies
-
Birds
-
Native insects
-
Small game
-
Other wildlife
Wildflower plantings can work well along field edges, open areas, recreational properties, hunting land, and locations where landowners want a more natural appearance.
We can help determine which areas of your property may be suitable for wildflower establishment and how the planting can be incorporated into the surrounding habitat.
Wildlife Habitat Benefits
Prairie grass and wildflower plantings can do much more than improve the appearance of a property.
When placed strategically, they can help create additional habitat and cover for multiple wildlife species.
For hunting and recreational properties, native vegetation may contribute to:
-
Better security cover for deer
-
Bedding opportunities
-
Pheasant nesting and escape cover
-
Turkey habitat
-
Increased pollinator activity
-
Improved habitat edges
-
More natural transitions between fields and timber
-
Greater overall habitat diversity
Rather than treating each planting as a standalone project, Pro Plots can look at how it works with food plots, bedding areas, travel corridors, timber, wetlands, and other features on your land.
Native Grass for Whitetail Cover
Native grasses can be especially useful on properties that lack tall, secure cover.
Open agricultural fields and short grass areas may provide limited bedding or screening value for deer.
Strategically planted prairie grass can help create thicker cover, improve visual screening, and add another layer of security habitat to the property.
Depending on the location, native grass areas may be used near:
-
Food plots
-
Bedding areas
-
Field edges
-
Hunting access routes
-
Property boundaries
-
Timber transitions
-
Open fields
The goal is to improve habitat without making the entire property difficult to access or maintain.
Pheasant & Turkey Habitat
Prairie grasses and native plantings can also improve habitat for upland birds and turkeys.
Pheasants can benefit from thicker nesting and escape cover, while turkeys may use a combination of open areas, grasses, insects, and surrounding timber.
A diverse property often provides more value than a landscape dominated by one type of vegetation.
Pro Plots can help create a habitat plan that supports multiple wildlife species while still meeting your goals as a landowner.
Site Preparation Matters
Successful wildflower and prairie grass establishment begins with proper site preparation.
Simply spreading seed over existing vegetation often produces disappointing results.
Depending on the property, preparation may involve:
The amount of preparation required depends on the current condition of the property.
Pro Plots can evaluate the site and determine what work may be necessary before planting begins.
Establishing New Prairie Areas
If you have an unused field, open acreage, or section of property that you would like to improve, prairie grass may be a good option.
We can help you think through:
-
Where the prairie should be located
-
How large the planting should be
-
What you want the area to accomplish
-
How it will interact with existing habitat
-
How it will be accessed and maintained
-
Whether wildlife cover, screening, pollinator habitat, or aesthetics are the main priority
The best planting is one that fits the property and serves a clear purpose.
Maintaining Prairie Grass & Wildflower Areas
Native plantings still require management, especially during establishment.
Pro Plots can assist with maintenance depending on the property and the goals of the planting.
Maintenance may include:
Long-term management can help protect the investment and keep the area functioning as intended.
More Than Wildflowers & Prairie Grass
Native vegetation works best when it is part of a larger property plan.
Pro Plots also provides additional land and habitat services, including:
-
