State of Change: The state of the Illinois Prairie
State of Change 2025 looks at efforts to retain existing prairie in Illinois, as well as strategies to restore some areas to a more natural state. Emmy winning host and producer Tinisha Spain hosted this year’s State of Change from the Loda Cemetery Prairie Nature Preserve in Iroquois County, Illinois. The land has not been cultivated and is one of the few places you can still find the original tallgrass prairie in Illinois. State of Change 2025 airs Thursday, November 13 at 7:00 pm on WILL-TV, the Illinois Public Media YouTube channel, and the PBS app.Latest News
