Native Plant Borders

The Community Garden is rimmed by Native Plant Borders which provide a demonstraton area for growing native plants and which will provide habitat for wildlife.  When mature, the borders will enhance the serenity and beauty of the garden and compliment the natural environment  of the park.

The native plant borders were layed out and various plants were acquired through donations and purchases.  Volunteers worked every other Saturday thoughout the year, rain or shine to  add the various species of plants and trees to the native plant garden.   An irrigation system was installed.
