"Sowing the Seeds of Harmony through Nature"
About this committee:
The Butterfly Garden is an on-going project that provides visual enjoyment for numerous visitors to a large park and recreation area at Covered Bridge Park and Wehr's Dam. The Club donates the plants and the township provides mulch for the garden. Planting, trimming and general maintenance are done monthly by the team throughout the growing season.
Committee members met on July 19, 2023 to do weeding and clean-up at the Butterfly Garden. Mascot Belle was on hand to greet park visitors and rest while the work was done. Thank you to Donna, Helen, Evelyn, President Claire, Patti, Maria and Judy for supporting this community project!
Committee members met on June 15, 2023 to do planting and clean-up at the Butterfly Garden. Luckliy, after no rain for 6 weeks, the skies opened up a few days earlier to bring much needed moisture to the soil and allow for easier planting. Thank you to Helen, Claire, Maria, Donna, Patti and Evelyn for their efforts in beautifying the garden!

The garden is now ready to have annuals planted to beautify the space.
On April 12, 2023, members of the Butterfly Garden Committee, along with Donna Wagner who is Co-Chair with Janet Minnich, were greeted by a fantastic display of daffodils blooming after a long winter in the garden at Covered Bridge Park.

A big thank you to Donna Wagner, Claire Kukielka, Patti Molitoris, Donna Wagner, Maria Dax, Helen Papathanasiou and Gail Micca for all their effort beautifying the garden!
