Baron-Forness Library Butterfly Garden

To celebrate Spring and Earth Day, members of the Baron-Forness Library Butterfly Garden Committee have been busy spreading soil and weeding our garden in front of the library. Soon to be added are more shrubs, perennials and annuals that are attractive to butterflies either for their nectar or as food for larva. Plants are donated by our gardeners. Butterflies are beautiful pollinators that are losing habitat with the American emphasis on grass lawns. Anyone interested in creating a Butterfly garden should check out resources on the topic available at the Baron-Forness Library or Erie County Library or talk to one of our committee members.
