Splashes of color - DeMotte Library Community Garden

Three years ago, the DeMotte Library began growing a Community Garden, filling it with perennials that added color to the library’s landscape. After 3 years, it was time to extend and thin out the garden, and with the help of the Purdue Master Gardeners from the Jasper County Extension Office, the library’s Community Garden has been expanded outward and the design thinned out and arranged so that the beauty of each plant in the garden stands out in colorful array.

The DeMotte Library thanks each and every member of the Purdue Master Gardeners for their hard work and dedication to this project, and invites everyone in our community to view the finished project, which beautifies the library from the outside, but may be seen from within the library as well.

We’d like to once again thank each and every person who donated their time and energy to this project and invite flower lovers from our community to enjoy the splash of color created by our Community Garden.
