Learn ways to bring beauty, balance & well-being into our communities. Join experienced gardeners for some insightful information on the benefits of native gardening. Please register.

If you’ve been participating in the Community Read of Doug Tallamy’s book Nature’s Best Hope, you’ve been hearing the name Start In Your Yard. In this session, we’ll talk a bit about what it is, what’s happening, and how you might collaborate. This can be a forum for sharing visions of SIYY, for elaborating them, and imagining our communities as places of beauty, balance and well-being. Join us as we play with ideas for extending the joy of discovery and creation to a wider and wider community.

This program is provided by the Wild Ones of Northern Kane County.
