A number of Knights of Columbus brothers recently took part in a project to enhance the landscaping at the Memorial to the Unborn, on the property of the St Paul Monastery on Route 224 in Ellsworth Twp.

After the older trees and shrubs were removed during the summer with the help of St Paul’s great “neighbors”, new bushes, trees and perennials were planted, like a weeping cherry tree.

The project included removing some of our famous clay-filled soil and adding topsoil and a little peat.

Future plans call for adding a bench and realigning the brick walkway.

We especially thank Dan Stout’s brother Gerald from Wisconsin who spent part of his vacation time working the project.

The memorial is right next to the often-visited St Anthony chapel, just off 224.
