A total of 0.1686 hectares, with 4 separate planting areas will include a private residence, a mini orchard, and area where patients living with multiple sclerosis can enjoy a quiet country setting.  The initiative will ultimately provide a safe haven for pollinators with ecosystem diversity.  Current habitat includes bumble bees, many species of bees, wasps, hover flies, monarch butterflies, moths, beetles and ants.  The addition of the wildflower seed grant may in time attract mason bees, leaf cutter bees and a wider variety of pollinators.  In the surrounding area, there are wetlands with a host of spring peepers and frogs, a small fallow field, many rock berms and a nearby wooded habitat.
