    APF is happy to announce our latest slate of Community Impact Grant awardees! This year’s grant projects range from nature play to trail improvements and community gardens. 🌳 Steck Valley Greenbelt was awarded funds for trail improvements, clearing of brush and eradication of invasive species. 🌳 Across town, Grand Meadow received funding to kick start their community garden – expect to see the garden take shape with a shed, bench seating and a fence soon. 🌳 If you’re looking to “escape” the city you can visit Heritage Oaks Neighborhood Park, Ron Rigsby Pocket Park or Walnut Bluffs Trail Head and enjoy their new nature play elements. To learn more about each of these grants: https://bit.ly/3MI3vZV
