HEALTHY LAWN & GARDEN DEMONSTRATION AT GRAND LAKE ASSOCIATION VISITOR CENTER Through the CLEAR GRAND project, a Lawn and Garden Demonstration Site is being developed with the help of local Master Gardeners and the Grand Lake Association. “With increased development of the area around Grand Lake, it will be important to ensure that residential lawns and gardens do not negatively impact water quality in Grand Lake and local streams,” says CLEAR GRAND project coordinator, Kevin Gustavson. “This demonstration garden will help well-intentioned locals and visitors know how to easily maintain beautiful gardens with a minimal impact . . . and you just might save money in the process.” The Grand Lake Association Visitor Center, location for the demonstration site, has a perfect lake-friendly lawn because it is beautiful, uses no fertilizer, and has suitable, yet low, nutrient values according to a recent soil test. BEAUTIFUL, LAKE-FRIENDLY LAWN AT THE GLA VISITOR CENTER IS AN IDEAL PLACE FOR A LAWN AND GARDEN DEMONSTRATION SITE. In addition to the attractive lawn, vegetable and flower gardens are being established behind the Grand Lake Visitor Center. These gardens will show the benefits of recommended lawn care and gardening practices over conventional practices for both the quality of plants and water quality. At this site, the garden will be maintained with recommended practices that should have a low impact on water resources and great success in producing healthy plants. Rainfall simulation and soil testing should show low nutrient concentration in runoff compared with conventional management practices in Grand Lake Guide 2008 | Come to play . . . plan to stay! nearby locations. Local Master Gardeners have volunteered to help manage this site and spread the word about these recommended practices. SUMMER VEGETABLE GARDEN AT THE GLA VISITOR CENTER JUST AFTER CONSTRUCTION AND PLANTING The first phase of the garden was completed in mid-2005 with the construction of raised beds and planting of a summer vegetable garden with help and donated plants from local Master Gardeners. Continued improvement of the garden includes planting shrubs, adding beds for flowers, and developing a small composting facility to reduce commercial fertilizer usage. A native plant garden is being developed that provides a number of benefits to the environment: the plants are attractive, climate adapted (low need for fertilizing and watering), resistant to local pests (low need for insecticides), and attractive to native wildlife such as butterflies and birds. Signs and brochures are being added to the site to explain water friendly practices such as soil testing, fertilizer recommendations, composting, selecting suitable plants, native plants for flower gardens and landscaping, plant problems with over fertilization, etc. Come by the Grand Lake Association Visitor Center to see the garden and learn how to help the land grow green while the water stays clean. 800.652.6552 www.travelok.com 9630 US Highway 59 North, Suite B Grove, Oklahoma 74344 918-786-2289 • 866-LUV-GRAND www.grandlakefun.com Grand Lake 37
