Dower's Prairie is a 14-acre native prairie remnant located in southwest Wisconsin, United States. Originally a dairy cow pasture, it was originally discovered to be home to an abundance of rare plant species by a man hunting in the area in 1989. After being fenced off from cattle, the parcel of land owned by dairy farmer Steve Dower has grown and diversified with over 150 different species. Notable plant species include Prairie Bushclover (federally threatened), Rattlesnake master, Blazing Star, Compass Plant, Showy Goldenrod, Coneflower, Big Bluestem, Little Bluestem, Indian Grass, Side Oates, Pale Purple Coneflower, and Aster.
Dower's Prairie is periodically burned and maintained by Steve Hubner. Hubner sometimes leads tours of the area. It is not open to the public.
