I don’t think any of them made it past the mowing. The one nearest to LeBel last the longest though. And we still have one left…

According to this article that Leesa tweeted about earlier today, Don Sadler is committing to 100-200 acres remaining naturalized even after the strike is over. I'm curious about what constitutes a "signature park," because I really think that it could much more interesting to keep some more visible places in this naturalized state. I agree Sam, Windsor is starting to look rejuvenated.

i love this idea! that sign is cute and official looking too. and obviously that meadow is amazing.

it’s nice that there are now places to go and lay in the tall grass and just feel nature (providing there’s no crazy striker booby traps inside).

before all of this, the only overgrown areas i saw were abandon lots that were dotted with old furniture and tires. it’s so refreshing to see REAL meadows instead.

people say that Windsor looks abandoned, but i think it looks rejuvenated (if you ignore all of the garbage, that is, lol).

fantastic! there is no reason why a lot of these areas should be cut.
