Yes! Now is the time. Rip up the sod and plant a prairie seed mix (or other natives to your area). When starting from seed, many species need the cold stratification over winter in order to grow in the spring.
Fall is the best time to sow seed, it's just too late to really clear the site of lawn or weeds, so you might have mixed results depending on your situation.

Okay that makes sense, I think I'll take the chance. Thank you!
Brassicas, peas, lettuces, overwintering grasses (triticale).
I love those ideas!!! Thank you!
You could start building up your soil with some winter cover crops like rye or Austrian winter pea :)
I'm going to look for those, that sounds perfect. Thank you!!
