Moving and Building New Things from Bricks to Nature's Beauty!

Now in 2010 this is what is left.

2013: This will be a beautiful arboretum like this one in Madison!

   

Urban Ecology Center just received the approval of turning a brick yard business, which will soon be turned into a huge natural garden and arboredum. This will be beautiful! This project will take about three years, so please come and volunteer to help see each step of the way! They need volunteers! On my last day at the Urban Ecology Center we were able to go on this vast amount of land and we dug out several plants that we wanted to take and preserve and put into use.  I found this to be rather difficult, because we were on a slight            angle and a huge hill! With the aid of fellow volunteers, I was able to persevere! Always a beautiful thing! I also had the quaint opportunity of picking off several seeds, of which, looked like turkey's feet, sounds odd, but very very true!


There was a tiny mouse that one of the Urban Ecology worker's found! This was cool but scary at the same time.
