The Prairie that Nature Built is a beautifully illustrated children’s picture book that communicates the interactions of the plants and animals that live in this endangered ecosystem.

ANPP thanks you for your dedication and hard work! We appreciate all you do, Rebecca!

This book is available at the Lafayette Parish Library Main Branch.

We view our native gardens as aesthetically beautiful, of course; but we also see the beauty of their ecological function – their role in the food web of the ecoregion where we live.

We are super excited to announce that ANPP won the 2025 Non-Profit of the Year award at the Lafayette Consolidated Government's Disability Awareness Committee's award ceremony.
