Pollinator Garden Open House
The Wheaton Garden Club members welcomed visitors to our Pollinator Garden Open House at Seven Gables Park on Saturday June 22, 2024. Visitors were able to see many different types of flowers that are beneficial to our local pollinators: birds, bees and butterflies. Children enjoyed coloring pictures of butterflies and bees. Free milkweed plants for Monarch butterflies were given away. We anticipate this will be an annual event.
