SCWF staff and volunteers along with the Friends of the Community Orchard, gathered together to install a new demonstration native plant pollinator garden in the Rosewood Community Orchard.
Native Pollinator Gardens Installed at Richland Library Ballentine
Thanks to grant funding received from the Richland County Conservation Commission (RCCC), SCWF staff worked with Richland Library Ballentine staff and community volunteers to create native wildflower pollinator gardens in the “grass island” of their parking lot. The gardens are already attracting pollinators as well as frogs, toads, and lizards, that have been seen foraging around the flowers and finding shelter in the vegetation and mulch.
