A Gut Wrenching Site

To some people, a planting bed filled with beautiful, perennial plantings timed just right for a year round display of beauty and offering pollinators a place to grow and enjoy nectar is “just some flowers” but to others, it “told the time of the seasons.”

The corner bed included coneflowers, iris, native sunflowers, roses, and milkweed.
The planting bed is now leveled. The last weekend of September found mums staked into the native beds with long wood dowels and pumpkins placed atop plantings.

Communication is KEY!

When grants, donations, and volunteer hours are given and permission to do so is granted by the Town, no one should take it upon themselves to damage, alter, and in this case, destroy what had been admired for many years.
