We’re creating a natural playground!

In 2019 we planted a 4 acre wildflower meadow to

  1. Beautify and better steward the land

  2. Feed pollinators like honeybees and monarch butterflies

This year we plan to…

  1. Overseed the existing meadow and

  2. Build an adjacent natural playground


Our playground plan includes…

An embankment slide, balance beams, sandstone boulders, a grass maze and hopefully much more!
