Focusing on smaller, urban and suburban neighborhood yards, presenter Brooke Medlin will show sample garden designs appropriate for HOAs, general zoning regulations, and neighborhoods where a more manicured look is expected. Also included are maintenance tips for plantings to encourage full, healthy native plants that stay upright and bloom often. Attendees can expect to leave with sample garden designs, ideas on how to implement them in their own yards, and recommendations for free resources to continue learning how to create and manage yard-sized healthy ecosystems. Brooke Medlin is a garden consultant, designer, and co-owner of Meadowsweet Ecological Landscapes.

Registration is required.

We will start our exploration at this little-known park right beside the Caesar Creek Gorge State Nature Preserve. Spring ephemerals we might see include mayapples, toadshade, twinleaf, and dutchman's breeches, just to name a few. For those who want to extend the outing, we will then venture over to the Caesar Creek Gorge State Nature Preserve to see what exciting wildflowers are blooming there.
