Shenandoah Valley Prairie Fen - CEGL006170
DCR-DNH ecologist Karen Patterson resampling a permanent plot in the prairie fen along Folly Mills Creek, 19 years after the plot was originally sampled.  Although the resampling revealed some species turnover, 89% of the species present in 1999 were still present, most with similar cover as before.  Folly Mills Fen State Natural Area Preserve.
