Butterfly Garden at Lockwood Farm



Every summer I visit the Bird & Butterfly Garden at Lockwood Farm in Hamden Connecticut. The garden is a quiet sanctuary filled with plants to attract birds and butterflies. If you look closely in the pond you'll find a couple of frogs.
There are benches throughout and a butterfly chair where I love to sit and daydream. Below are some of the flowers you can find throughout the garden.
