Wild Ones Prairie Edge Summer Tour ~ EP Fire Station #2
July 27th – 6 to 6:45 pm Eden Prairie Fire Station #2 Sustainable Landscaping 12100 Sunnybrook Road, Eden Prairie During the summer of 2017 Eden Prairie converted the Fire Station #2 property to a sustainable native landscaping habitat. It became a demonstration site with low-mow grass and native flowers and grass plantings and a rainwater collection system. The cistern captures rainwater to be reused in irrigating the landscape and washing the fire trucks. Well diagramed signs explaining the benefits of the native plantings are posted along the short walking paths for self-guided tours. Leslie Stovring, City of Eden Prairie, will provide us with a tour of the landscaping. |
