Details:
This year, the tour features a wide variety of gardens, from shady to prairie, all maintained by hosts who don’t use chemical fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides, who compost and who use innovative techniques to save water. Learn about combining native plants with cultivated flowers and with edible gardens. Learn what native shrubs thrive in shade and provide homes and food for pollinator insects and birds. Visit the Village’s Edens Wildflower Garden to learn about Wilmette’s native plantings along the Highway 94 corridor. We can’t wait to see you there! A map of the yards with addresses and descriptions will be posted here the Friday before the event. The event will occur rain or shine! We look forward to seeing you there.
