The site of the former Thurston County landfill has become a high of all sorts of community activity. Home to the Thurston County transfer station, Hazo-house and a Goodwill drop off location, the landfill site is also home into a brand-new off leash dog area, a playground made with recycled materials and a beautiful garden tended by volunteers of the WSU Master Gardener program. Closed Loop Park is Thurston County's one and a half acre demonstration garden built on a portion of the Hawks Prairie Landfill that was closed in 1991.
Master gardeners tend to a wide variety of plants including two notables-a wonderful variety of sedums and a beautiful collection of over 90 peony varieties donated by Pacific Northwest Peony society.
