Update from the ScienceWorks field — native flowers are blooming
It’s been a long, slow process to restore our field over the past couple of years, but we’re starting to see signs that the work is paying off. Last year, we spread several pounds of native seeds, and this spring they’re beginning to return the favor.
If you look closely (we know it’s hard to see, these flowers aren't as showy as their commercial cultivar cousins), you’ll spot blooms from native lupines, poppies, red clover, and more.
This growing diversity does more than add color, it helps rebuild a healthy ecosystem. Native plants provide food and habitat for pollinators, support soil health, improve water retention, and create a more resilient landscape over time.
We’d love for you to come see it for yourself. Take a walk around the field, slow down, and notice what’s emerging. What do you see? Who’s visiting the flowers?
Small changes add up, and this is just the beginning.
