Mountain Brook marked a special occasion Saturday with the installation of a new pollinator garden at Brookwood Forest Elementary, which will include about 100 plants with over a dozen native species. Mayor Graham Smith spoke about the project’s educational impact, saying, “We’re hoping that Brookwood Forest is our kickoff…change happens at the micro-level.” In 2023, Mountain Brook became the state’s first Bee City USA affiliate, and increasing native plants is part of the plan to help conserve those insects.A moment of joy: News We Love
