Village of Westmont
Date Issued: June 26, 2020
The Morton Arboretum recently donated plants and trees to the Richmond Education Gardens & Apiary (REGA). REGA is a joint collaboration between the Village of Westmont and the Village of Clarendon Hills located at 1 S. Richmond at the intersection of South Richmond and East Quincy.
“Because Morton Arboretum didn’t have their annual plant sale, they were able to make a generous donation to our Richmond Gardens project, said Jon Yeater, Village Forester. “We received several different species including Red Currant, Thornless Blackberry, Red Raspberry, and Fallgold Raspberry. We want to thank the Morton Arboretum for their generous support of this project.”
For more information, please visit the REGA website.
