The goal of Minnetonka’s park restoration program is to restore native plant habitats in the city’s woodlands, prairies and wetlands. With the help of contractors, volunteers and city crews, we work to control non-native invasive species and protect native plants, especially those with high value to pollinators, birds and wildlife. We use practices that will help prevent erosion, minimize herbicide use, build the soil and improve water quality. Small scale, volunteer re-planting projects occur annually.
