The Kids 4 Earth teamed up with Tracy Hanson, a local landscape designer specializing in native plants. The little patch of land that had been tended by the Kids 4 Earth has been transformed into a demonstration garden featuring native plants that require little maintenance. Stop by and take a peek before the winter arrives. Funding for the specimens was provided by the Hillsdale Free Public Library Foundation.

Chasmanthium latifolium (Northern Sea Oats)

Carex appalachica (Appalachian Sedge). Fine textured, lush green grass with a free form. Low maintenance. Average to dry soil.
