Haymarket Park Stormwater Basin Has Been Seeded

In the first phase of work to convert the stormwater facility at Haymarket Park to a pollinator friendly habitat, the current vegetation mix of traditional turf grass, thistle, and other unwanted species will be removed. The basin has been planted with two different pollinator seed mixes.

Ferguson Township is partnering with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service, Central PA Pheasants Forever, Habitat Forever, and the Foundation for Cal U to convert the stormwater facility at Haymarket Park to a pollinator friendly habitat.

In the Fall of 2019, trees and shrubs will be planted to create additional resources for pollinators, as well as habitat for other other wildlife, such as songbirds.
