Indian Rock Native Garden


The directions to this field trip made me uncomfortable at first glance, so I was humbly grateful when Matt offered to take me along with his merry band of carpoolers. When I wasn’t driving, the garden looked rather easy to get to and nearby, but I’m sure if I were behind the wheel confusion would instantly ensue.

I expected the native garden to be much larger than it was, I must admit. It was rather interesting to hear our guide compare the area as just a finger of the hand that used to be Indian land. At the same time, it was awfully depressing. So little remained of what used to be beautiful wildlife! Still, even in such a small area, we found a various collection of different native plants.
