'It is a wholesome and necessary thing for us to turn again to the earth and in the contemplation of her beauties to know of wonder and humility.' ~ Rachel Carson

The Detroit Harbor Ladies Aid donated the seed money (no pun intended) for us to create a quarter-acre pollinator plot on Plum Island.  We worked with Prairie Nursery (Westfield WI) to create a seed mix that would work in our environment.
​
It is said that the first year you sow, the second year you wait and the third year you appreciate.  Come and see us in 2026 to bask in the beauty of our patience!
