The Nettie Coit Garden is surrounded by a pollinator border full of plants designed to attract bees, monarch butterflies, and other pollinators. These pollinators, attracted by the flowers in the pollinator border, go on to also pollinate the various vegetables in the Nettie Coit Garden. The pollinator border also includes a variety of herbs that can be used to make herbal teas, a common drink for Garden Club members during the cold winter months. For a full list of plants in the Pollinator Border, click here.
