#Cemeteryphotos Challenge by @melinda01010
I've used the tag #cemeteryphotos. If you have some cemetery photos, use the tag and feel free to post your photos or links in the comments and I'll do my best to upvote them.
Green’s Prairie Cemetery is a time vault of the prairie plants that once covered the south central Wisconsin prairie. Because it was used as a cemetery starting in 1845, it was never plowed and fencing kept out cows. Today the cemetery is still covered with prairie plants such as compass plant and bluestem.
The prairie is burned every spring to help control invasive species and to make it easier for people to find the graves of their ancestors. Metal shields and plenty of water prevent damage to the gravestones.
There are believed to be a hundred and thirty-seven people buried here, including two veterans from the War of 1812 and veterans from the Civil War and their families.
University of Wisconsin classes visit the cemetery to see a slice of native prairie.

Interesting cemetery, nice photographs.
One does not think of a cemetery as a 'time vault' but it does make sense.

Nygren Wetlands has a beautifully restored prairie near me, but I don't know of any other original pieces of prairie land. “What a thousand acres of Silphiums looked like when they tickled the bellies of the buffalo is a question never again to be answered, and perhaps not even asked.”- Aldo Leopold

Prairie fires are the natural way of things. There are plants rhat require the heat from fire for the seed pids to open. That cemetery was there a few years before Wisconsin even became a state.
