Savanna is a transition zone from forest to prairie. Our sandy soil is home to many rare plants and animals including the stunted black oaks, the crowned oval sledge, the red headed wood pecker and the pocket gopher.
Founded by a freedman in the 1800's, Pembroke township is one of the last remaining black oak sand savannas in the Midwest
