SUMMARY:Ribbon Cutting for Bayou Greenbelt Pollinator Garden
LOCATION:The Seed Center
DESCRIPTION:A new pollinator garden along Contraband Bayou at Henning SEED 
 Center is bringing environmental stewardship\, community partnership and t
 he vision of Just Imagine SWLA's Bayou Greenbelt to life. Following the ga
 rden's planting in October\, community partners will gather Thursday\, Nov
 ember 12\, for a ribbon-cutting celebrating the new space and the collabor
 ation that made it possible.\n\nFunded by a grant from Phillips 66 to the 
 Community Foundation of Southwest Louisiana\, the garden was made possible
  through the Foundation's ability to bring partners together and facilitat
 e the project from funding to planting.\n\nThe collaborative effort brough
 t together the Community Foundation\, McNeese State University\, Louisiana
  Master Gardeners\, Louisiana Master Naturalists\, Diggers & Weeders Garde
 n Club\, and the Garden Club of Lake Charles to create the new space.\n\nT
 he garden features over 20 species of native plants\, shrubs\, and trees\,
  along with sculptures by local artist and McNeese professor Kenneth Baski
 n and benches overlooking the garden and Contraband Bayou. Beyond creating
  habitat for pollinators\, the space will give people an opportunity to ex
 perience and connect with the natural environment.
