MADISON, Wis. – It’s likely the landscape at Madison city parks is about to change - it could become edible.
The city’s Parks Commissioners voted to drop strict requirements after a late meeting Wednesday night. For much of the evening, it appeared the commissioners would like to see the issue taken up citywide, which would have sent the issue to the fully City Council, WISC reported.
