Raised Bed at Hanson Park
Progress of plantings along with sign-in sheet for volunteers to record weeding and watering.
Commissioner Kowalski joined members of Hanson Park Conservancy for the County’s first ADA garden bed planting!
ADA garden beds are meant to make gardening easier and accessible for everyone, regardless of limitations. We can’t wait to see how members of this community are impacted by this new installation and the progress that this will make in all of the member’s future plantings!
Thank you to all who participated and made this possible.
Livingston Avenue School staff and students have welcomed a brand new pollinator garden to their school!
Did you know that most native bees are solitary? They are known for laying eggs in tiny tunnels in dead trees, fallen branches, hollow stems, or in sandy soil. For that reason, it is encouraged to add logs and bare patches of sandy soil to your gardens as a means of attracting pollinators to your garden.
