petunias
What began as an idea in 1982 to add beauty to the city has been a nationally recognized feat: Charlevoix's five miles of US 31 are lined with petunias each year and they are gorgeous!

Beginning in 2019, the petunia project changed from the flowers planted along the road 450+ baskets hanging along the road. A redesigned highway eliminated a lane near the planting area were volunteers could safely plant as well as water throughout the season. The special watering truck, a highlight in parades, was sold. nd is ready for the city's handcrafted 16' steel flower hole punch roller.
