The new Butterfly Garden honors the life of Jo Ann Reinhard Cermin, an avid gardener and nature lover. This 18-month project was driven by her husband’s vision and the hard work of many volunteers. Each element of the garden reflects Jo Ann’s passion for nature’s beauty.

Special thanks to High Plains Underground Water Conservation District for donating a rain barrel for sustainable watering.

Together, the community of volunteers not only planted and nurtured this garden but wove Jo Ann’s legacy into the very fabric of the garden
