This is to let you know that the butterfly garden visit this coming Saturday is CANCELLED for the time being. We hope to postpone it to a later date.

We have been keeping an eye on the status of COVID-19 in the Triad. New cases are rising dramatically. If we are going to ere, we want to do so in favor of the health and safety of our members and guests. Some of these folks have other health issues to consider, as well. Consequently, we have made the difficult decision to not meet as a group at the home of Pat & Gene Holder this coming Saturday. Pat invites anyone who would like to see the Holder native plant butterfly garden individually to contact her at <[email protected]> to arrange a date and time.

Pat Holder is looking forward to having members of the Carolina Butterfly Society
visit their garden on Saturday, July 31, 2021 at 9:30 am. Pat’s address is:

1895 Lake Country Dr. Ext.
Asheboro, NC 27205

Webkeepers Note – For those who use GPS, I believe the coordinates for the entrance to Pat’s driveway are 35.747880, -79.848766

There will be safe parking on the side of the country road as well as a little parking in their driveway. Pat is seeing more and more butterflies, still not a huge number, and lots of bees and dragonflies. At the moment the garden is full of blooms, and as the Bee Balm fades, more Black-eyed Susans are popping open. It should be lovely, but warm.

Pat will be out of town until Tuesday, July 27 and will have access to email in case there are questions. Visitors should email Pat at the following address to let her know they are coming.
