Our Purpose

Our purpose is to increase awareness of the environmental importance of pollinators by creating a pollinator garden on the side lawn of our church. The church is located on the town Common and gets a lot of exposure to the community and visitors. We will present information to our congregation and the community to further increase awareness of pollinators by offering presentations on pollinators to the congregation and the community at large, and guidance on how they might encourage pollinators in their home gardens or fields.
