colors in the garden include<br />
purple and white flowers.<br />
Many of the plants have attracted<br />
bees and butterflies<br />
to the area, like the milkweed<br />
plants.<br />
“We want what is going<br />
to be sustainable, of course,<br />
in those areas,” Hahn said.<br />
“[Main Street Lockport] has<br />
done a great job of getting<br />
some good pollinators here<br />
that will help the butterflies<br />
and bees and that all goes<br />
into the mix of pollinating<br />
the things that we consume.”<br />
Signage is required somewhere<br />
around the garden to<br />
let the public know about<br />
CN Railroad’s involvement<br />
in the project. Lockport went<br />
a little above and beyond the<br />
requirement and had a custom<br />
metal plaque made. The<br />
plaque is mounted on an old<br />
piece of stone from a Joliet<br />
building, Keller said.<br />
“There is a sign on the<br />
back of the public parking<br />
sign, but this is an added bonus,”<br />
Miller said.<br />
Kvedaras has been to<br />
quite a few unveiling ceremonies<br />
through the grant<br />
program, and said that each<br />
town puts their own spin on<br />
the signage and the plants go<br />
into the gardens.<br />
“From my perspective,<br />
we’re always pleased and<br />
quite flattered by some of the<br />
accommodations that some<br />
of the plantings are done in<br />
the communities,” he said.<br />
“It varies by community,<br />
some of them do more historic<br />
things, some will do just<br />
a pure optical enhancements.<br />
“But, it’s really interesting<br />
to come out and see what<br />
they do with the funds that<br />
we furnish. Kudos to Lockport<br />
for doing a great project.”
