less herbicides, much less trash, more flowers!

All our efforts to be good stewards of the Poppy Creek Green Space, and to plant poppy flowers there, has led to a reduction in herbicide application in the area and significantly less trash!remember how trashed this space used to be?

Working with staff from the city’s creek stewardship, we have managed to get a landscaper at the property adjacent to where the Poppy Creek Green Space bulletin board is, to stop spraying.  This came after a bunch of flowers we had planted at our fall gathering were poisoned and destroyed.   New ones are now coming up, and a promise not to spray again was made.
