Six Mile Marsh Prairie Trail

The project demonstrates how landscape architecture can reconnect people to the land and hydrologic cycle through thoughtful design and environmental interpretation. Situated within a restored prairie, the trail offers an immersive experience that fosters environmental awareness and reflection. Interpretive features encourage visitors to explore the site’s history, hydrology, and biodiversity while highlighting the importance of the conservation of upland environments to support healthy water systems. By creating meaningful interactions between people and the landscape, the project serves as a model for sustainable interpretive design, inspiring individuals to recognize their role in shaping a resilient future.
