Columbus Branch Volunteered at the Ferris Wright Historical Garden on August 13th, 2023

AYLUS Columbus volunteers help watering, weeding, and harvesting at Ferris Wright Historical Garden on 08/13/23.

Located at the northeast corner of Emerald Parkway and Riverside Drive, Ferris-Wright Park preserves and showcases ancient earthworks, an 1800s farmhouse and natural features that are significant parts of Dublin’s history. The land surrounding the park has been home to many over the years, from indigenous peoples thousands of years ago to some of Dublin’s first settlers. Ferris-Wright Park contains three earthworks (two circles and a square) that were constructed by the Hopewell culture. The park is also home to the Interpretive Center located inside the historic Ferris family farmhouse. The center honors the past through interactive stations that tell the stories of the park’s inhabitants throughout the years.

There were vegetable plants and flower plants around the shed, house, and in three Garden beds. The garden is very small so the volunteers were able to get everything done in a short amount of time.

Volunteer hours are as follows:Catherine Harman 1.5 hourBrenna Li 1 hourKatie Lu 1 hour
