Watch for an email regarding the next Butterfly Garden Work Day. The email will explain how many can work at one time. In addition, members can go to the garden on their own to work, but please let our President, Karen Eckert, know you plan to be there.
Our regularly scheduled work days are twice a month: on the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays.
March dates: 3rd and 17th, 8:30 am. NOTE: These dates can change depending on garden conditions.
On March 3, we’ll be adding nearly two dozen new plants to the garden (bring hand trowel, small shovel, small rake) and cleaning up the oak tree sprouts (hand pruners). There is room for six volunteers! Come early to get the primo jobs! Please let Karen know if you are coming.
