Thanks to our Sponsor Bruce Power's Environmental
and Sustainability Fund

Thanks ALSO to our first Work Bee volunteers who cleared lots of lily of the valley and periwinkle, both non-native invasives.

And to those who planted 100% native plants in the Library's concrete planters. A great success!

Thanks also to Library staff for keeping the plants hydrated.

Check out the plants as they begin to settle in & bloom.
