The bench is marked with the phrase, "A unique sense of place on the St. Croix River." In 2008, over 60 residents of Prescott, Wisconsin, collaborated with artist John Tarula to create the Butterfly Bench.This bench is located within a vibrant butterfly garden, which was also part of the "Bench Project." Master gardener Kathy Oss provided guidance to the team on native plants that attract butterflies, helping to create a habitat for these important pollinators.The project connects a series of artistic benches situated in various small towns throughout the St. Croix Valley. It encourages both residents and visitors to explore the region's scenic beauty, unique communities, and cultural attractions.
