Runaway Woodchips and Resilience

Resilient garden

Our native plant pollinator garden continues to bring many challenges and rewards. After some woodchips washed away during heavy rains, we’ve been very much focused on drainage. In addition to digging a trench, we’ve had some tree work done, moved a bunch of stones, and received the autumn magazine. Nancy’s plants are growing beautifully, with a near 100% survival rate of the seeds started in our back-conference room this winter (lovingly referred to as our ‘greenhouse’).

We have more to do to complete the trench and adjust where the path meets the road, but we are learning a lot and ready to celebrate what we’ve accomplished so far. On Thursday, September 19, 2024, we will host an Autumn Open House and Garden Party to give you a chance to visit with us and see the garden for yourself. We hope you can join us! See details here.

Our thanks to the Jack & Dorothy Byrne Foundation, The Lyme Foundation, and the many generous neighbors who are making this project possible. Visit our Pollinator Garden Campaign to get involved.
