Kettle Pond Native Plant Gardens will be open for tours each day. URI Master Gardeners will greet visitors in all the gardens, ready to answer questions and share science-based horticultural information about best gardening practices.
Kettle Pond Native Plant Gardens were established in 2017 and are populated with over seventy RI native plants, including grasses, ferns, and shrubs. The garden is lovingly tended by URI Master Gardener and US Fish and Wildlife Service volunteers and showcases the importance of biodiversity, attracting a wide variety of pollinators seeking sweet nectar or pollen. The swathes of color and the buzzing of the insects are a joy to behold. The gardens are situated from areas of full sun to shade with the right plants in the right place. These well-designed gardens demonstrate layering as well as bloom times through the seasons. Look out for Monarch butterfly eggs or larvae on the milkweed plants as you stroll through the space.
