Re-establishing power grids, native plants, Monon Trail | Indiana Newsdesk

Coming up on Indiana Newsdesk:

Last month’s storms left thousands without power for almost a week … and electric companies and co-ops struggling to re-establish the grid. That’s left customers looking for answers.

Native plants are good for birds and insects and are more resilient to a changing climate. Some home owner associations and cities are beginning to encourage planting native species.

And a long-time Bloomington restaurant is changing ownership.

Those stories and the latest news headlines from across the state, Friday at 6 on Indiana Newsdesk.
