Past & Present of Swampeast Missouri (V)

Registration period: November 28 - February 12

2 million acres of swampy and oversaturated soil. When southeast Missouri’s settlers first arrived, this is what greeted them. They deemed it as land unfit for cultivation and habitation and moved on. It wasn’t until years later that citizens began to realize the potential agricultural powerhouse that this land could provide as well as the unique habitat and species that are found only in the Bootheel.

Celebrate a belated World Wetland Day, and learn all about past and present southeast Missouri as well as the unique wetlands found there.
