This document is a landscape design and construction plan for "The People's Garden: Feeding People and Pollinators" project at the U.S. Dairy Forage Research Center in Madison, Wisconsin.

The project involves creating a garden space that serves dual purposes of food production and pollinator habitat. The design includes constructed elements such as crushed limestone garden pads (5.5' x 40' and 5.5' x 20'), raised planters and beds along an existing building wall, Waupun boulder clusters and walls with perforated drain tile, a dry creek bed drainage swale, stone benches, and various hardscape features including concrete pads, sidewalks, and stairs. Materials specified include clear limestone gravel, limestone chips, brown wood mulch, Mirafi geotextile, and crushed limestone base. The plan incorporates native perennial plantings and shrubs selected for pollinator value and food production, including Karl Foerster Grass, Shenandoah Switchgrass, Little Bluestem, Prairie Blazing Star, Butterfly Weed, Cardinal Flower, Magnus Purple Coneflower, Black-eyed Susan, Bird's Nest Spruce, Arctic Fire Dogwood, Black Chokeberry, Korean Spice Viburnum, Tara Prairie Dropseed, Carousel Little Bluestem, Iroquois Beauty Black Chokeberry, and Spice Baby Koreanspice Viburnum. The document provides site plans, section views, material specifications, and reference photographs of the landscape elements and plantings proposed for the installation.
