FWSP Trees & Flowers Grant – Blue Mound State Park
The Friends of Blue Mound
State Park requested a grant in the amount of $100 to work with the
Blue Mounds Garden Club to purchase plants and materials necessary to
enhance the area around the Blue Mound State Park Entrance Visitor
Station (PEVS).

The
Blue Mounds Garden Club designed and donated plants from their own
gardens for this project, so the total cost was only $92.31 which
included bags of filler soil and a soaker hose. The remaining funds,
including the promised matching $100 from the Friends of Blue Mound
State Park, will be used to beautify the new Friends Shelter sign,
once it is installed.
The
Blue Mounds Garden Club and other park volunteers donated their time
for the installation.
The
Park donated the mulch.
