Let’s get growing together! We’re hoping to see lots of these cheery sunflowers in the area and your participation will make that happen. Plant sunflowers this spring and help to not only beautify the area but to also give back to all of our pollinators.

ONE OF THE BEST WAYS THAT YOU CAN SUPPORT THIS PROJECT IS THROUGH PURCHASING A PACK OF CANADIAN GROWN SUNFLOWER SEEDS AT THE MUSEUM. WE HAVE A VARIETY OF SUNFLOWERS RANGING FROM 3-7 FEET TALL. PACKS CONTAIN 25 SEEDS AND ARE $5 EACH. ALL PROCEEDS FROM SEED SALES GO TO THE MUSEUM AND HELPS TO FUND OUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING, INCLUDING OUR SUMMER YOUTH HERITAGE GARDEN WHERE WE PARTNER WITH THE 'WILLIAMSTOWN GREEN THUMBS' AND 'BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB OF CORNWALL.'
IN TURN, YOUR PLANTING OF SUNFLOWERS WILL PROVIDE OUR POLLINATORS WITH MORE OF THE BLOOMS THEY NEED TO SURVIVE AND THRIVE! THANK YOU FOR YOUR PURCHASE! |
