Sudbury Valley Trustees has been working to restore a portion of the Greenways Conservation Area in Wayland to a native wildflower meadow. Thanks to the hard work of volunteers and staff, the wildflowers are blooming in their first season. Even better, they are being visited by multiple and diverse pollinators, as seen in these photos taken by SVT's Habitat Management Specialist, Rich Couse.
