We are working with Scott Soil and Water Conservation District on the installation of the seed and they have recommended a prairie and pollinator mix for the 34 acres of seeded park area. Given the large size of the area, the have recommended Minnesota Native Landscape's seed since for large areas, they have seen better germination.
We are using the State Contract to purchase from Anova, benches and trash receptacles using the city's matrix for park furniture. | | |
