Creating gardens with native plants. Karen Sherman, designer of Hawthorne Hill Pollinator Garden and Jean Muntz, native plant gardener, will discuss what to consider and ideas for getting started.

Now that you’ve decided to reduce the amount of grass and use more native plants, you may be wondering if this means the yard will need to look like a prairie. We will talk about, and look at ideas for using native plants, trees and shrubs in a way pleasing to your design esthetic. Planting styles, paths, borders, water bowls, dry creek beds, even boulders and stumps can be used to enhance the conditions of your space, no matter the size, while simultaneously providing food, shelter and safe passage to all who share it.

Sign up to get ideas for creating a pleasing landscape using native plants.

This program is in partnership with the Wild Ones of Northern Kane County, for more information please click here.
