Come in person to a free event. Gather ideas for planting a low maintenance garden in the bump-out (curb extensions) or planting strip in front of your home. With a few feet of planted green space, you can offer food sources, water, shelter, and places to raise young for our native pollinators, the bees, butterflies, insects and birds.
The focus is on native plants and perennials that thrive in typically dry, neglected areas.
This event will include an informational presentation followed by a design activity with small breakout groups. Participants under 12 years old are welcome with a parent or guardian, but the presentation and activity are written for adults.
Melinda Dennis, Marilyn Salvas, and other members of WCG will present the workshop.
