Presenters Julie Wildschut and Haley Kornoelje will help us explore nature-based solutions for underutilized, degrading parking lots. The presentation at the Bunker Interpretive Center will cover options, costs, process, and plant community planning, followed by a visit to a case study site on Calvin University’s campus at the Prince Conference Center. Here, you can envision how parking lots can be retrofitted with bioswales that capture or slowly release stormwater, introducing native biodiversity.
