Ohio Guide Photographs
Description: Caption reads: "The seeding and planting project four miles from Bedford in the Cleveland Metropolitan Park system is transforming eight acres of rough hilltop into a huge modern picnic and play area. In three months' grading operation approximately 6,000 square yards of earth were moved after which the six-inch layer of top soil was replaced. The area has been seeded and covered with mulch for protection to the young grass throughout the winter. Picnic tables, stoves and shelters will be constructed in the spring." This photograph shows a group of men using pitchforks to spread straw over a field of newly seeded grass. View on Ohio Memory.
