Visitors can get an inkling of what the native prairies looked like
when they visit Olson Park. A cooperative venture between the City of
Worthington, the Department of Natural Resources and a local 4-H chapter
involved prairie restoration of a three acre area of the park. Many
wildflowers and native grasses were planted and flourish in the
southeast section of the park.
