Pollinator Gardens in Penticton & Merritt

May 15, 2023

A productive day in the pollinator garden by the Rotary Club of Merritt at Rotary Park! Additional annuals will be planted on May 27th. A big thanks goes to those who came out to "bee" a part of this project. Merritt looks forward to watching it grow throughout the season. Along with club members and their spouses they would also like to thank those from the community who joined in, Including Marji Hilland, Angelo Ho, Gale Simpson, & Erin Miller.

Penticton Sunrise members were hard at work this week planting native plants in the Rotary Peace Park on the KVR Trail between Edmonton Ave and Jermyn Ave. The club started this trail project in 2012, planting trees and building plaques naming our Inbound and Outbound Exchange Students over the last 30 years. Thanks to the City of Penticton for supplying top soil and Sagebrush Nursery for not only supplying the native plants but providing information on planting and maintenance of our pollinator garden.
