MNL has completed a sustainability improvement project at the Rogers Library. Our crews spent 4 days excavating the existing vegetation, boulders, and soil and constructed a rain garden with compost, mulch, and native plants. Then they installed 2000 square feet of native prairie sod (no shortage of blooming Black-eyed Susans!) grown by our own production farms. MNL will continue to maintain the site for the next 3 years.
