On July 10th, the Sayville Library had the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to celebrate the new Native Garden, Pollinator space and Sayville Rotary donated Peace Pole.  Peace Poles are 4- or 6-sided monuments inscribed with the message, “May Peace Prevail on Earth” on every side. On each side the same message is written in a different language.

Rotary Club as an organization promotes world peace–one of their six (6) pillars is ‘World Peace Through Understanding.’  Members of Rotary raise funds that allows us to give money back to the community, this particular project is sustainable and hopefully has a lasting impact.  Please come visit the Peace Pole and sustainable garden space at the library, where you can scan a QR code to view the native plants that are planted.

This project was a collaborative effort by the following community groups:  
-The Rotary Club of Sayville @sayville_rotary @sayvillerotary
-The Friends of the Sayville Library
-The Sayville Garden Club
The space was designed and installed by Bayport Flower Houses @bayportflowerhousesinc
