Project Location: Sunrise Bank, 2171 University Ave. W.
​Partners: Sunrise Banks
Status: Healthy / Entering year 4 of growth

In 2017, TWP began its relationship with Sunrise Banks, converting a 200 square foot rock patch into a mirco-habitat amidst a concrete jungle. Located at the busy corner of University Ave. and Vandalia St. in Saint Paul, it provides a much needed oasis to hungry pollinators.
Garden Information:
  • Before: 200 sq. ft. of rock
  • Bermed the rock into a pile in the center, covered with organic compost
  • Planted 20 native grasses, 15 perennial flowers, including Liatris, Butterfly Weed and Black-Eyed Susan, and native wildflower seed sown in the middle
  • Bumble bees have officially been spotted at this garden!
