Alert: Wasps Nests in Houghton Garden

Neighbors, please be on the look out for a wasp nest in the pathways of Houghton garden. A local resident was swarmed there recently and wanted to alert others. See areas circled in red on the map above for approximate location.

A Thank You to Houghton Garden Volunteers

Many thanks to our friends and neighbors who helped clean up Houghton Garden in early April. It was the largest number of volunteers that we have had since the effort began fifteen years ago. The park looks well cared for which could not have happened without everyone pitching in. It was fun to work together and then to join Bob Hanss who hosted a cookout and picnic creating an opportunity for neighbors of all ages to relax and (re)connect with old and new friends.

Please join us next spring!

Our neighborhood is fortunate to have such a lovely natural area for respite and restoration in our busy lives. Unless we, as stewards, give something back in the form of care and concern for this site, this could easily turn into a neglected and less desirable open space in our backyards.
