The Madison Lake Watershed and Lake Association, with the help of two Master Gardens and resident volunteers, created a shoreline garden on the east side of North Shore Park, as a visual aid for assessment of habitat conditions of developed lake lots. The new habitat follows best practices of creating a shoreline buffer zone, as defined by MN DNR Score Your Shore. Gary Schmidt donated a rain barrel to aid in watering the garden. Placards will be added to provide information about plants and habitat.
