Yard One: Derek's Yard (1:00pm)
What began as a search for better vegetable harvests led to a passion for native plants, pollinator conservation, and community engagement. Tour a collection of evolving gardens created through experimentation, learning, and a commitment to sharing native plants and gardening knowledge with others.
Yard Two: Patrick's Yard (2:00pm)
What happens when a homeowner replaces every square foot of lawn with native plants? Visit Patrick's grass-free landscape to see a thriving habitat filled with pollinators, learn about his journey from traditional lawn care to native gardening, and discover what inspired him to give up his lawnmower for good.
