The HCUCA has assisted on several restoration
projects throughout the County. Projects have ranged from the
installation of a schoolyard habitat at the Shamrock Springs Elementary
School in Westfield to the conversion of common area spaces for homeowner's
associations.
The HCUCA provided extensive assistance with the
creation of a 6.3 acre nature park for the Ridgefield Subdivision in
Fishers. The project included planting 4.5 acres of native prairie, planting
native trees and grasses in a riparian buffer along Sand Creek, and
planting native trees and shrubs for wildlife habitat cover areas.
The HCUCA assisted in planning, design,
preparation, and implementation of the project. In addition, the HCUCA helped
locate cost share funding which paid for a large portion of the
project. Finally, the HCUCA assisted in the planting of the prairie.
