The Iowa prairie is full of unexpected attractions, but none are more unexpected than the one hiding in Harvest Preserve on the outskirts of Iowa City. This members-only natural sanctuary can be visited either as a member for a $100 annual fee or as a guest with a $10 day pass, and the peaceful natural surroundings are worth it. However, one sight there has a fascinating history dating back thousands of years – and coming from halfway across the world.
