We hope you enjoy the Cedar Hill Discovery Garden!
This is a garden spot for all to enjoy! Please feel free to wander the paths, add to the compost bins, and inquire with the library staff about how you can be a part of the garden!
Fall Rejuvenation of the Discovery GardenThe Discovery Garden has been blessed by a Grant Donation! As you may have already noticed we've been trying to give new life and rejuvenation to the garden! As it celebrates its 10th year at the Zula B. Wylie Public Library, we want to give it some TLC and make it an even more enjoyable experience for the gardeners as well as our patrons! We have new benches being installed soon. There are new composters within the compost area. If anyone would like to add compost or use the compost they are welcome to it. There are also new hose racks that have been installed, as well as new hoses. And there is more positive changes coming! Stay Tuned! We currently have a few plots available for new gardeners! Please register below. First come, first serve. Once the garden plots are full, we'll add you to a waitlist! Register here.
