But still needs additional love and  care; Prescott Campus should not be the exception when it comes to care and attention to flora, rest areas and formal gardens

The Butterfly Garden on the Verde Campus has been improved over the past couple of years.  A gazebo and a bench were added along with gravel on the paths in the garden.  It’s becoming a restful, pleasant spot for students and others.  But as the photos below show, weeds are growing in the gravel paths and in general the garden is in serious need of some  “spiffing up.”

The goal should be to keep it in as good of condition as the College does for the Sculpture Garden on the Prescott Campus or its exercise trail. Hope the new administration will put “excellence” as the goal for caring for the Butterfly Garden and all of the gardens, schrubs, trees throughout the District on its various campuses and centers.  The Prescott Campus should not be the exception.
