A huge thanks to all of the volunteers that helped out with our pollinator garden planting at the Gogebic Community College Arboretum! It would not have been possible without all of you. We planted over 600 native flowering plants in the two garden beds near the arboretum entrance. Once they grow to full size the plants will add a splash of color to this natural area for years to come.
