just wanted to share this as i love these kind of projects. google map pictures are to show how it looked previously.
in 2022 there was almost nothing and they planted alot of this in 2023. second year in and its doing amazing! i checked many plants and all i checked were natives. many butterflies, bees and bumblebees can be seen in these fields.
i hope more municipalities do such changes and plant native plants. it looks nicer and is better for our biodiversity!

Awesome!
I wish more cities in the U.S. would do this!
So beautiful!
Nice! Very encouraging.
My little suburb near Chicago has been getting their act together recently too, converting a bunch of grass strips in local parks and cemeteries to native prairie plantings. Should be fantastic in a couple years!
I love this. Using native plants really helps give a sense of ‘place’ to a location.
Fucking awesome!
I wish the U.S would follow suit. There’s so much space for native micro-ecosystems in every city and small town.
Wow, that is beautiful!
