Shaker Village manages over 1,000 acres of restored, native prairie. By establishing and caring for this important habitat native wildlife, like Bobwhite Quail, have flourished.

Once per year, Shaker Village offers the public the opportunity to hunt wild quail in this native habitat through a hunt lottery.

Habitat management requires significant funding to conduct regular controlled burns, herbicide treatments, plantings and monitoring. Proceeds from The Heritage Hunt for Bobwhite Quail help Shaker Village provide this maintenance, and create a sustainable system so future generations may enjoy Kentucky's native flora and fauna. In addition, wildlife management through controlled hunts helps to sustain a healthier quail population.
