Events › How Does Your Garden Grow?

We are celebrating the beginning of our Edgewater Seed Library! Join Carmen Vidalhallett from EcoVidal Design, Amanda Betancourt-Szymanowska, Environmental Science professional and Gabriel Vidal-Hallett, Architect, for a presentation about rain and pollinator gardens. Whether it’s a yard or a public parkway you can get environmental benefits and an area of rest and relief in a busy city! They will also be discussing green roofs, walls, and the best native plants for Midwest gardening.

After the presentation you will have an opportunity to sign up for a free two-hour work shop the following week that will help you plan and create your own garden!
