Since we learned of the threat in late 2020, Saint Paul Audubon members and friends have been asking Ramsey County and Maplewood to preserve the 77-acre grassland adjacent to Battle Creek Regional Park. (Refer to the attached fact sheet for information on the importance of this grassland.)

We have partnered with other organizations, attended public hearings, met with the county commissioners and the mayor of Maplewood, and worked to build public awareness of this amazing, little-known natural area.
