SUNFLOWER REMEDIATION
BECAUSE FRESH AIR, BEAUTIFUL VIEWS AND SUNFLOWERS MAKE FOR BETTER LIVING Lakeview Village is committed to building a futureready, sustainable community. LCPL planted over one million sunflowers at the existing Lakeview Village site during the summer of 2019 to continue its remediation efforts through the process of phytoremediation. This allows for soil optimization, supports native species and nature conservancy and builds strong connections with our environment. Sunflowers are “phytoremediators” – a solar, energy-driven soil cleanup technique.
Sunflowers attract bees because of the high-quality protein in their nectar. This helps bees survive and pollinate other plants for stronger local wildlife.
