Summary

A July 15, 2021 Beaver Island Forum post reported faerie gardens at the Mabel and A. J. Roy Heritage Park, described them as created by Dick McEvoy and friends, and asked visitors not to disturb them.

Evidence and limits

This is a single community report rather than an institutional park record. It supports the existence of an installation at the time of the post and its attributed creators, but the archived attachment is unavailable and there is no evidence here for permanence, exact placement, or current condition.

Sources

  1. The post reports faerie gardens at Heritage Park across from the library, attributes their creation to Dick McEvoy and friends, and asks visitors not to touch or take them. The referenced photograph is unavailable in the archive, and the post does not establish the installation’s duration, exact footprint, or present condition.
