Pollinator Garden at the Camelot Elementary School

Garden Club members work with Camelot Elementary School to maintain this  pollinator garden throughout the school year. Designated as a National Wildlife Federation Certified Schoolyard Habitat, all the plants were chosen for the food and shelter they provide pollinators. Led by Charlie Kackley.
