The Friends of Madison County Library has undertaken a long term project to create environmentally sensitive and sustainable gardens and landscapes on the grounds of the Madison County Public Libraries for the general public's education, use, and enjoyment.  The vision for this project would be accomplished by fostering land and water stewardship through environmentally friendly garden designs and maintenance and associated educational programs on the library grounds.  As part of the project, two plants, a native and an invasive, will be chosen to be highlighted each month in all library branches. Look for the displays of the plants and information that you can read and use.   The website for the Marshall Native Gardens Initiative will tell you more!
