Iowa Field Guides Volume I: Prairies

Preorder Volume I: Prairies of the Iowa Field Guide Series. This small-batch publication features artwork, poetry, and prose from thirty contributors* with heartfelt connections to prairies across the state of Iowa. Our cover art is by Claire Jussel. 

All preorders will ship within one week of launch day (estimated launch February 2026). Preorders will include a special edition broadside print of one poem from the field guide. 

Proceeds from preorders will help to provide one free copy of the field guide for each of our contributors. We need 20 preorders fully fund our goal; thank you for supporting our grassroots publication! A portion of proceeds from Field Guide sales will go to prairie preservation and restoration efforts in Iowa.
