October 1, 2017 – Medford Campus Meadow

Based upon the success of the work done to improve the Lumberton Campus Meadow, we are currently working to plan improvements to the Medford Campus Meadow. Larry Weaner Landscape Associates has been secured and is working on this project. The ultimate goal of the project is to make the area more colorful and sustainable in terms of native plants, grasses and wildflowers. Residents, guests and local wildlife, in particular birds and butterflies, will be the ultimate groups who benefit from this project. This fall, as a first step, the control of invasive non-native species will begin. This process will take a number of months to get the invasives under control, but this needs to happen before anything further can be done. Stay tuned as plans develop.
