Project snapshot

Maker Park Radio is increasing the safety and accessibility of the highly used local park. To accommodate wheelchair-bound residents, volunteers are adding topsoil over the rocky surface and planting grass to create easier pathways. They are also building benches that can be used as both teaching centers and planters, so community members can learn about and work with native plants, pollinators and edible plants.
