SCARCE

Joe-Pye w**d is a native perennial flower that naturally attracts dragonflies. These towering, vanilla-scented plants provide a place for dragonflies to sunbathe and lure both prey and pollinators.

Dragonflies are not only beautiful creatures but also are environmental health indicators and natural predators of pesky insects like mosquitoes.

To maximize the effect of your dragonfly native garden, plant Black-Eyed Susan and Swamp Milkw**d, add a shallow water source, and avoid broad-spectrum pesticides.

We had such an exciting day here at SCARCE yesterday! For the past few years, our longtime friend Steve (AKA Dr. B) has been taking trips with his RV to deliver items to the Navajo Nation Reservation in Arizona and New Mexico, which is our country's largest Indian Reservation. Each year, we check with the community leaders about what's needed. Here's a list of what we sent this year:

-47 walkers from the Addison Fire Protection District
-1 wheelchair
-60 home repair tools
-5 guitars, along with guitar picks (repurposed from gift cards)
-Work gloves
-4 boxes of brand new sweatshirts from Elkay
-1 box of brand new t-shirts from Elkay
-40 personal care kits
-50 fidget spinners
-8 pairs of brand new socks

All of these items will go to help people in need throughout the Reservation. Thank you Steve, and thank you to everyone who has helped with this project!
