Orleans Conservation Trust Office

The Orleans Conservation Trust staff and volunteers transitioned a prominent area around their building on Rt. 28 to all native plants in the Spring of 2023.  As a founding member of the PPCC, the OCT wanted to highlight to visitors how a native plant garden can be established by using different planting approaches.  The main bed was planted with 1-gallon perennials, while another area was seeded and a third area was planted with many native plant "plugs" or small plants.
