Join our Weekly Public Gardening Sessions
Join us during any of our weekly public gardening sessions (even if it's just part of the hour!), where we clean up and beautify Lyons' community gardens. During these gatherings we weed, discuss new plants we'd like to add, spread seeds, and plant.
​
We typically garden at one or more of the 3 public gardens that we maintain on High Street (The West Wall/3 Bears Garden, The Butterfly Garden, or the High Street Terrace) all near Moxie.
How do these sessions work?
-
You simply show up to get your hands a little dirty!
-
You make new gardening friends here in Lyons (and officially become a member of the Lyons Garden Club by showing up!)
-
You pull some weeds, dig some dirt, move some rocks, and plant some plants. You only have to the types of gardening tasks you like to do, and are capable of doing!
-
We often meet up at Moxie or another establishment after for those who want to socialize a bit.​
What should you bring?
-
You!
-
Sun protection (hats, sun-blocking clothes, sunscreen)
-
Gardening gloves if you like to wear them
-
Tools you like to use (hand tools, buckets, etc.) - optional but appreciated!
