Welcome to The Sunflower Garden.
Welcome to The Sunflower Garden. This garden is brought to you by Incredible Edible Merchantville in partnership with The Merchantville Green Team. We would like to give a special thanks to Chris Mattern and Beth Manning for all of their volunteer efforts. Why Sunflowers? Not only are sunflowers beautiful, but they have a special ability to draw heavy metals from the soil. As this path used to be a railroad, there is a known risk for the potential of heavy metal leaching into the soil.
