Neighborhood Park Project started 2020

We have three neighborhood parks close by!  Thanks to a grant last year our neighborhood association created pollinator garden beds of native plants in each park!  Most of the plants were little starts in 4" pots!  All plants were chosen to attract monarch butterflies and other pollinators!  We qualified as a designated Monarch Way Station also!  My job was to find, select and obtain the 150 plants we needed!  It was a fun educational experience due to my lack of knowledge of native plants!

2021 August and here it is inspite of a drought condition and very little care,  Just as we expected...in all its glory.  Pollinators are eagerly visiting and it is a joy to see!  We labeled all the different plants with their names so visitors can identify them easily!
