Tend the demonstration prairie at Ole Olson Park

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Friends of the Mississippi River

Join Friends of the Mississippi River (FMR) as we return to this riverfront park to tend an important native demonstration prairie garden along the bike trail. These showy flowers and grasses will not only beautify the park but provide much-needed bee, butterfly, and bird habitat. And, with deep root systems that act like filters, they'll help reduce the amount of pollution flowing into the Mississippi River. This event will help further our long-term transformation and commitment at this site and to the river.

As always, we will provide all any tools and training needed. All are welcome, however, capacity is limited and registration required. To learn more and register, visit http://fmr.org/events/2018/05/31/tend-demonstration-prairie-ole-olson-park.
