on august 18th, cerah hosted a successful native plant garden tour where guests were able to explore 6 different native plant garden sites throughout thunder bay. attendees learned about local plants and received gardening tips from homeowners, while volunteers from cerah and the north west dementia working group<\/a> shared information on the dementia gardens: a place to grow<\/a> project. huge thank you to all the homeowners who opened up their properties and shared their gardens with us. though most of the gardens were located on private properties, there is one beautiful public <\/em>native plant garden located at boulevard lake – the adelaide butterfly garden<\/a>. we highly recommend you check it out! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
