The Native Plant Trust (formerly The New England Wildflower Society) is located in Framingham, MA at Garden in the Woods. Their purpose is to preserve the diversity and beauty of New England native plants. As their website says: The principles of ecological gardening are simple: work with, not against, nature to achieve a beautiful, sustainable garden….For all who are new to gardening with natives, we hope you take joy in the plants themselves, and in watching the native bees, butterflies, birds, and other creatures drawn to your home habitat.

Along with our Blessing of the Seeds at this weekend’s services, we are seeking financial support for our CARING FOR CREATION PROGRAM. All donations to the collection basket in the Narthex will help enable activities and earth care programs at St. John’s. You may also send in a donation – earmarked for “Caring for Creation”. Thank you for caring
