Gardens tie our home to the surrounding landscape, provide an outlet for artistic expression, are a source for natural beauty, and offer refuge from a hectic and unpleasant world. This two-part series will be presented by Horticulturist Sonja Lallemand. The first presentation on Tuesday, January 24, 2017 will introduce basic principles and ideas on designing your landscape and the necessary first steps to success. The second program on February 27, 2017 will focus on plant choices, primarily Illinois native flora that nurture and feed our little friends, bring you joy, and require minimal care. Learn how you can do your part in your own backyard.
Presenter Sonja Lallemand is a member if the Illinois Native Plants Society – southern chapter, Tupelo Wild Ones and the Marion Garden Club.
The program is FREE and open to the public. Contact Ruth Kelley at 684-2196 or
