Jepson Prairie is home to several threatened and endangered species such as theDelta green ground beetle, vernal pool fairy shrimp, and California tiger salamander. Purchased byTheNature Conservancy in 1980 and transferred to Solano Land Trust in 1997, Jepson Prairie is one ofCalifornia’s premier vernal pool habitat. Solano LandTrust stewards this property in partnershipwithTheNature Conservancy,University ofCaliforniaNaturalReserve System, and theDepartment of Fish andGame.
