Emily Hodapp works with conservation partners and landowners throughout the Illinois and Mississippi rivers areas to produce more duck food while also promoting Boltonia decurrens, a federally threatened plant species. In addition to Hodapp's work on the rivers, she tackles hill prairie restorations which will benefit the monarch butterfly, pollinators, northern bobwhite, migratory songbirds and more.
