SANDWICH – Heritage Museums & Gardens installed a new bioswale sign in the Birch parking lot recently using grant funding from CARE for the Cape & Islands.
The sign will provide information on the bioswale, a rain garden that assists with drainage and filtration in the parking lot.
According to Heritage, as the grounds are self-guided, interpretive panels are a key component of the educational mission, allowing visitors to engage with plants, buildings, and exhibits at their own pace and comfort level.
Heritage described the area in the full bloom of summer as “an amazing combination of visual beauty, engineering, and sustainability.”
