In Northern McLean County just east of the town of Weston is the
last remaining Tract of relatively undisturbed virgin prairie. The
five acre plot contains the Weston Cemetery and also contains
almost 100 native plant species. Weston Cemetery Prairie is a
designated Il. Nature Preserve and is managed by the Il. State
University and serves as a valuable seed bank for current and
future prairie restoration projects. While there check out the
cemetery and imagine what this country looked like back in the
1820's as settlers first arrived in this part of the country. Do
not attempt this cache during times of deep snow or muddy
conditions, there is only a grass and dirt drive.
