We braved the heat on this very warm summer day to team up with Hillsboro Parks staff to spruce up our adopted park. First
we weeded out dead plants and debris from the raised beds. Then we raked barkdust around the remaining plants in the beds and around trees in the park. Barkdust is
made from the bark of trees used in the logging industry. It
works as a mulch to suppress weeds as well as to conserve water as it is effective at absorbing water and preventing water loss due to evaporation. It also made the park look great! We're proud to play a role in making our community more beautiful and were happy to see that the flowers we planted in early spring are still thriving.
