Prairie Wildflower Seeds: Tiny Songs

Prairie wildflowers yield many seeds. In their dry, dormant state, the seeds – some no larger than a pinhead – make sounds.

Artist Cadine Navarro explored the sound vibrations of nine native Ohio prairie plants in a recent art exhibit. Author and poet, Terry Hermsen, was so moved by the art exhibit and the seed sounds that he wrote his most recent book, Tiny Songs: Haiku and Meditations.

Join us as Mr. Hermsen shares some of his thoughts and poems from the book, along with a guided prairie hike. Maybe we will hear the songs… Meet in the Resource Center.
