The Landfill Pollinator Garden says thank you to all the volunteers who came out on a drizzly, cold Saturday to weed and do winter maintenance.

On Saturday April 3, 2021, over 20 members of our Williamson County NPSOT Chapter and the Goodwater Master Naturalists came to work on the Landfill Pollinator Garden. For over 3 hours, these hardy and dedicated folks worked in the drizzle and wind to create a giant mound of recyclable plant material but also to ready the garden for spring. Waste Management has been a partner in this Pollinator Garden since 2012 and they will take our pile of debris for recycling.

The Landfill Pollinator Garden is at the corner of FM 1660 and Landfill Road, in Hutto just across the street from the Recycle Center at 101 Landfill Road.  The garden is always open to the public.  If you visit during the Recycle Center hours of 7:30am-5pm, excluding their lunch from 12:30pm-1pm, you can ask to park in their lot and not on the busy road.  They are also there 7:30am-Noon on Saturday and closed on Sunday.

This year the Bluebonnets on the berm are making quite a show and might even be a good background for your family Bluebonnet picture.  Please step carefully and preserve them for the next family.
