Healing Gardens

We would like to see the horsetail that is predominant throughout the site be pruned back and kept from overrunning the whole area. Maybe finding an area of the stream bank to keep it. However, this will require constant tending so that it doesn't make its way back throughout the whole site. We also would like to see kinnikinnick (which we believe to be completely dead) make an appearance again and be a healthy member of the open-stream bank community. Although they tend to love rocky slopes it might be a forelorn hope. If this is the case finding a similar plant to inhabit it's area would be a good idea. The path across the open stream has a small nootka rose growing in the middle of it that we would like to transplant to a place more suitable for growth. Besides this the site is in dire need of some more pruning and weeding as well as regular care, dandelion has taken large swaths of the hillside and need to come up.  Also some of the signs are overgrown and  some plants  are not growing where there sign is.
