Revitalizing the Woods 

Abandoned woods along an old farm path became an underutilized area near the center of the campus. The area had poor water drainage , large mulch beds devoid of other beneficial plant material, and a transitional forest canopy from cherries and ashes to oaks and maples. Inspired by many hikes throughout the northern Ohio forest, a design of native ferns, flowers, bushes, and sedges was laid out in a beautiful year-round patchwork growing together while supporting the entire ecosystem.
