GREEN GARDEN PARTIES

Get in on the fun by scheduling a Green Garden Party! 

sample shot

Would you & your neighbors like to learn more about composting, grasscycling, or natural lawn care?  Simply host a party indoors or outdoors at your home or meeting place.  It's free, and there is absolutely no selling involved; however, there is a doorprize drawing and many free take-home items.

Similar to other "home parties", you & your guests will learn about topics including:

  • Natural/organic lawn care
  • Composting yard trimmings & kitchen scraps
  • Leaf mulching methods & "recipe"
  • Water-wise/natural landscaping approaches to yard care

FAQs:
Who do I invite?
Friends, family & neighbors.  Or, schedule a party for a church group, rotary or other organizational meeting, garden club, or business lunch.  We ask for a minimum of 10 people.
How long do the parties last?
The parties last between 1-2 hours, depending upon the number of guest questions.
When can parties be scheduled?
Green Garden Parties are most effective if planned on a weeknight, particularly in early spring.  Weekend parties are successful if accompanying a lunch or meal.
