Specialty Crop

The Habitat Hero Demonstration Garden includes native species of flowers, shrubs, and small fruits (‘Alexandria’ runnerless strawberry and ‘Red Lake’ currant) that survive on less than 15 inches of annual precipitation. The garden is an example of a water-wise planting that provides habitat for birds and pollinators and helps to beautify the community.

It is a joint project of the Cheyenne Board of Public Utilities, Cheyenne-High Plains Audubon Society, Laramie County Master Gardeners, and National Wildlife Federation.
