Lillian (Sis) Thomas was nice enough to share some photos of the early days of the Celery Farm's Pauline Oxnard Butterfly Garden.

The gardeners (left to right) are Mary Lane, Lillian Thomas, Carol Flanagan, Pat Brotherton and a woman I couldn't I.D.)

The speaker at the dedication is Stiles Thomas.

(Thanks, Sis!)
