The Media Rotary wanted to expand the library’s offerings to include more gardens, encouraging residents to enjoy the beautiful flowers and other plants that depend on pollinators to produce. Rotary International is currently working to increase the number of pollinators and the Media Club, as part of that emphasis is planting several pollinator gardens, including milkweed, which is critical to the life cycle of the Monarch butterfly. It will be planting a pollinator garden on May 20 at the Jaisohn Memorial House, 100 E. Lincoln St. in Media.
