Garden Walkabout Members Only
Members Only Free Event Home/Private Garden Tour
Come visit Wild Ones member, Marcia Carrick's garden and see what has changed since her first Walkabout in August 2024.
Marcia writes: "My native plant journey began with hearing Doug Tallamy speak at Meijer Gardens. I then heard him speak again at the Wild Ones-River City Chapter 15th Anniversary Celebration at Aquinas College on June 20th, 2022. On June 28th, I became a Wild Ones member. At that point I decided to replace all of our turf grass, which had gone mostly to weeds anyway, with native plants. That means less mowing and more habitat. I currently have 150 different species of native plants in our yard and wooded area. Today, I enjoyed watching out our slider at the many, many pollinators buzzing around various plants that are currently flowering."
Wild Ones members will receive an email invitation for Marcia's Walkabout with her address closer to the event.
