My Butterfly Garden at the Ipswich InnThanks to Catherine Carney-Feldman who shared her expertise and the butterfly garden she designed and planted at Ray Morley's B&B with the IGC! Catherine inspired us with much information about the life cycle and habitat of butterflies. She presented a slide show, gave many handouts and encouraged all to create a butterfly garden.
The meeting was held in the afternoon to catch the light in the Ipswich Inn garden had 22 members in attendance. The vote for changing the fiscal year to July 1st through June 30th passed. The Club is going forward to come under the Garden Federation of Massachusetts' umbrella of a 501C3 organization (registered non-profit).

ReplyDeleteButterflies are in decline. They are important pollinators. Perhaps we could get a plant list from Cathy and plan to install a few of these plants in our own gardens next year.
Sorry, I'll miss this meeting... see you all in November.
