This summer, the Rotary Club of Wilmette Harbor sponsored the Pollinator Coordinator Project at the SE corner of Lake and Laramie Avenues in Wilmette. This exciting project will return native plantings to the area, eliminate the need for mowing by the village, reduce carbon emissions and save the Village labor costs for many years.

This summer, the Rotary Club of Wilmette Harbor sponsored the Pollinator Coordinator Project at the southeast corner of Lake and Laramie Avenues in Wilmette. This exciting project will return native plantings to the area, eliminate the need for mowing by the village, reduce carbon emissions and save the Village labor costs for many years. Our club contributed approximately $4,000 to help with the costs of the project design and plants. Club members helped with the planting of cornflowers, coreopsis, asters, milkweed, onion, goldenrod and columbine. Watch for these native plants to flourish in Spring 2021!
