Each year Prairyerth honors individuals who have spent a lifetime working
to preserve the language, crafts, arts, teaching, or traditions of
North American people, or who have worked to protect the land through restoration
and preservation. This project was recognized as a Gift of Service to the World
by the 1999 Parliament of the World's Religions. |
Prairyerth is based in the Chicago area but like
the American prairie, it is very elastic. Prairyerth does not have a permanent
home in a set location.
