Residents, homeowner associations, organizations and businesses can help “paint the landscape with wildflowers” near their homes, buildings and offices by participating in the City’s annual “Operation Bloomtown” program. Simply identify a median, park or other public area that could use some color and the Parks and Recreation Department will order the seeds and do the planting in the fall, charging only the wholesale cost for both the seeds and labor. Cost is approximately $100 per 1/10 acre, which equals more than 4,300 square feet. Deadline for submitting an application for the program is Monday, June 15; click here to download the application.
