Nault Park in north Vanier has a playground, a water splash pad, a pavilion, and a large open green space. Two separate, teardrop-shaped pollinators gardens are set near the pathway, which runs through the park on the north side, connecting pedestrians and cyclists from Ste. Anne Street to Boudreau Street. The large sun garden is approximately 300 square feet and the small shade garden is 40 square feet.
The Nault Park Pollinator Garden is an initiative of the Vanier Community Association and their Beautification Committee. The project was initially sparked by the Committee’s participation in the Suzuki Foundation’s Butterflyway program and the desire to increase local biodiversity and build pollinator habitat.
