Duck
Food Signs
in the pond
highlight
the importance
of feeding
the ducks
with grain.
Bread
pollutes
the pond
water and
is less
healthy
for ducks.
Healthier
food grain
is available
from the
Peppertree
florist.
The
fish feed
themselves
!

Fishing
is
NOT PERMITTED
on the
pond,
even with
a rod
license.
If you
see anyone
fishing
and feel
comfortable
please
point
out the
signs,
if this
conversation
turns
abusive
call 101
