Claridon Prairie

Nature
5
Claridon Prairie is a grassland extending one mile east between the road and the railway, one of the few surviving remnants of the once extensive prairies that were part of pioneer Marion County. Preserved by chance when the railway and road were constructed side by side, this strip contains more than 75 species of significant prairie grasses and flowers.
