Let’s meet up at Go Green Deerfield’s 3rd Annual Sustainable Yard Tour on Saturday, July 24th from 10am to 2 pm.

We’ll be showcasing six beautiful Deerfield yards with some of the following features:

• Native plants, shrubs, and trees
• Butterfly gardens
• Home and municipal composting with LIVE DEMO!
• Healthy hedges of native shrubs and trees
• Buckthorn removal practices
• Edible landscaping with veggies and fruit
• Rain barrels and rain gardens that help ease rain water runoff
• Rooftop solar panels
• Natural lawn care

Stay tuned next week for a listing of the six yards, and tune up your bicycle to make the tour truly sustainable!

Go Green Deerfield members on site to help answer many of your questions on these sustainable topics.
