We Hope You’ve Heard….
About the Holton Outdoor Classroom and Garden Project! But in case you haven’t, a garden group has been hard at work to help bring you an outdoor space where you can study, learn, picnic and enjoy nature.
Under the covered pergola, designed by Mary Lorino and nicknamed ‘The Bug’ (can you guess why?), there will be four picnic tables and a couple of fans for hot days. Surrounding ‘The Bug’, will be the horticultural gardens that will have themes such as scarecrow, Colonial Herb, butterfly or alphabet gardens, just to name a few. If you wish to stroll and observe, you will be able to make your way through the ecological section, or the natural habitat meadow and see what kind of birds and butterflies are out and about.
If you dare, come explore the insect garden and see what you can find. Or, if you’re curious come smell and feel a variety of plants in the Scent & Texture garden. Or simply sit under a tree and take a breath.
As you can see, there are many possibilities and ideas, plus much work to be done. We invite you to join us in further developing our garden and sharing any expertise you may have. Our next meeting will be at Holton on September 24 at 6:30.
And by the way, Holton Outdoor Classroom and Garden Project is a mouthful! Can you help us come up with a name?
