Second St. Gardeners
The Second St. Gardeners is a group of volunteers who tend the flowers in the boulevard corners along Second St. in River Falls. Some corners are cared for by an individual, others by a group sharing the duties. Annual plants are donated or provided by the City of River Falls. The city also provides mulch and some watering through the season. If you are interested in working on this rewarding project or have questions, contact Nicky Simpson nsimpson@rfstatebank.com
