SARA - Grassland Restoration

Open Remnant Grassland at Stop #6 in Saratoga National Historical Park

Saratoga National Historical Park commemorates the American victory over a major British force during the Revolutionary War. The Battle of Saratoga marked the first surrender of a British army, signaling a turning point in the United States’ quest for independence and earning its place as one of the nation’s most consequential military engagements. Established in 1938, the park spans over 3,000 acres, with nearly 1,000 acres of remnant grasslands. These lands were once managed by Indigenous tribes for hunting, gathering, cultural, and medicinal purposes, reflecting their deep connection to North American history. As a sanctuary for grassland birds, the park’s management is committed to restoring plant diversity, reducing invasive species, and monitoring wildlife, including birds and pollinators, to gauge the impact of our restoration work.
