Girl Scout Troop 1791 recently established a 2,000-square-foot pollinator garden with thirty native plant species in Veterans Tribute Park in St. Charles County, MO. The Troop consists of eight fifth-graders passionate about making a difference.

Their goal is that the garden will provide shelter and nectaring sources for pollinators and create an educational opportunity for park visitors.
