Wine & Wildlife on the Prairie
Thanks to everyone that participated!
Together, we raised over $10,000 for land conservation on the southern plains.
Join SPLT for a special event on Wednesday, July 22 at 6pm MT. We’re partnering with Talon Wine Brands to bring you an hour-long online adventure. It will include a virtual wine-tasting and winery tour by Talon Winery owner Glenn Foster and a “visit” to the prairie with SPLT Director Nicole Rosmarino and Preserve Manager Jay Tutchton.
If you’ve always wanted to come to a SPLT event, but couldn’t physically make it – here’s your chance.
