Delaware Botanic Gardens will host a COVID-19 vaccine clinic from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., Thursday, July 22, in collaboration with the Sussex County Bookmobile vaccination partners Sussex County Libraries, Beebe Healthcare and Sussex County Emergency Medical Services.
“We welcome all to get a vaccine shot and then visit our 37-acre gardens for free,” said Ray Sander, DBG president.
“We are so thankful for our community partners like the Delaware Botanic Gardens to be able to offer more Sussex Countians the COVID-19 vaccine that is saving lives during this pandemic,” said Kim Blanch, RN, community service manager for Beebe Healthcare Population Health. “This is a walk-up clinic for those 12 years of age and older. We will be providing both Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. Anyone under the age of 18 will need to be accompanied by a parent/guardian to receive the vaccine.”
The Rhyne Garden at DBG is planted with over 12,000 native perennials. SUBMITTED PHOTO
