Pollinator Garden

The Summit has been lucky enough to have a new pollinator garden added this year! This week, first graders got the chance to take a look up-close! They were on the search for tiny monarch caterpillars that had been seen on the milkweed last week. We weren’t able to locate the caterpillars (because they’re still very small!) but students got to observe lots of other pollinators, including a variety of bees, moths, and butterflies. We love our big backyard!
