Next hike set at Forest Hill Cemetery pollinator field

The ninth hike of 2023 in the Putnam Parks and Pathways series is set at 9 a.m. Saturday at the Forest Hill Cemetery pollinator field.

Jason Keeney, cemetery superintendent, and John Garner will be there to answer questions.

During this walk, seeds will be collected and spread to areas of the field that have fewer flowers.

The pollinator habitat on the southwest side of Forest Hill Cemetery is emerging after an initial planting in 2018. The project was a collaboration of Quail Forever, the City of Greencastle and Putnam County Soil and Water Conservation District.

The area offers a quiet, relaxing place to walk and enjoy the flowers and the wildlife the flowers attract.
