Location: South St. Anthony Park
Partners: Joy of the People, Our neighbors
Status: Healthy / Entering year 4 of growth

TWP's earliest partnership led to the establishment of this garden, on the north side of South St. Anthony Park, only yards outside the backdoor of TWP's headquarters. This space was transformed from invasive burdock and weeds into a thriving ecosystem and has more than enough room to continue growing.
Garden Information:
  • Removed burdock and other invasives
  • Planted dozens of native perennials and seed mix
  • 500+ square feet
  • Species include liatris, showy milk weed, yellow cone flower, purple cone flower, hyssop, and a native seed mix
  • Lots of new pollinator activity; dozens of species witnessed and photographed, including a swarm of monarchs
