Native Meadow Mix
In the fall of 2019, we planted 10 acres of a meadow seed mix comprised largely of species native to the northeast. This meadow seed mix was created based on information learned in the Native Meadow Trial. The larger acreage compliments ongoing monitoring in the trial and provides an opportunity to learn more about establishment and management of a seeded meadow on a larger scale. In addition, the meadow allows for further study of the insect biodiversity and beneficial insects found in a seeded meadow.
Spring wheat is planted in the early spring and it is harvested in July.
