Hillside Prairie Sanctuary property is Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance’s newest sanctuary!

Join us for a special opportunity to explore its 348 acres during our Open House Days. On September 19 and 20 between 7am and 7pm, we will have a SoWBA staff person on site to welcome you, give you a map, suggest a few hiking trails to explore independently, and answer your questions.

This is a wonderful property near Cambridge, Wisconsin that been a working farm for 200 years. For the last three decades, the property was a hay farm, with delayed haying to allow nesting birds to fledge. As a result, the property has a wonderful abundance of Bobolinks and other grassland birds.
