It's amazing how many pollinator-friendly, native perennials can be planted in a small space! This pollinator garden was planted on a thin strip of land behind a garage next to the Caldwell Public Library. It has welcomed butterflies, bees (especially bumble bees) and other pollinators for several summers. It has also served as an outdoor learning center and demonstration native garden for library patrons.
