This June, take a stroll through the O’Fallon Community Garden and enjoy a special treat for young readers! The O’Fallon Garden Club will be installing a children’s book along the garden path, highlighting the incredible journey of Monarch Butterflies.
Visit the garden at 549 East State Street anytime between June 1–15 to explore blooming flowers, thriving vegetable beds, and a fun, educational story perfect for families.
Why Monarchs? As the Garden Club continues to grow fresh produce for our local food pantry, we’re also committed to supporting native plants and pollinators like the Monarch Butterfly.
