Boston Harbor's Nut Island blooms in summer

(This is Sue Scheible's 'A Good Age' column for June 26, 2007.)

The third annual Nut Island Wildflower Festival takes place in Quincy -- an event that would have been considered a nutty idea 20 years ago before the closing of the former sewage treatment plant.

4,206 people viewed this and no one commented? Well, I'll comment! I really enjoyed the video. I went to this vid because there was a mention of Queen Anne's Lace - a flower of my childhood in Ohio and I'm now trying to get it to grow here in Wyoming - not the most ideal but it's working! I've never been to Mass. and may never go - but this video took me to a place I would be searching for if I did go. Thanks to all who made Nut Island so beautiful & thanks for the story, whoever wrote it!
