Charlotte Rhoades Park Butterfly Garden

During our most recent trip to New England, we had the pleasure of visiting the Charlotte Rhoades Park Butterfly Garden in Southwest Harbor, Maine. The garden is masterfully done, and maintained by a group of local volunteers. It is also a registered Monarch Waystation.

We had the opportunity to speak with one of the volunteers during our visit, and were impressed with his knowledge, dedication and friendliness!

Shown below are a few photo highlighs of our visit. We highly recommend a visit to this fine garden when in the Desert Island area in Maine. For more information, visit the website of the Charlotte Rhoades Park Butterfly Garden
