Grasslands

Buffalo were returned to a part of the Badlands in South Dakota in 2019.

Grasslands, particularly in temperate climates, are among the most vital and yet most overlooked of Earth’s terrestrial ecosystems. Our grantmaking supports grassland-dependent communities with community-based conservation programs and sustainable strategies to preserve these vanishing ecosystems.
