Little Habitat Yard Tour

June 1 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Garden bed with lupine and other native plants with wood chip pathsPlease join us for a “gardening with natives” tour of 3 yards in South Salem off Madrona.

Three community members who live close to one another will share ideas and inspiration for creating habitat in your yard. Michelle Harvey’s yard is planted with ~85% Willamette Valley native plants. She has incorporated various habitat features (brush pile, rock piles, leaving stems, etc.). She is a certified participant in the Little Habitat Project. Lorie and Katy are a less than 5 minutes away and right down the street from each other. Lorie is also working toward Little Habitat certification. They have both been incorporating native plants into more established plantings. The variety of projects is sure to provide something for everyone!

Marion Soil & Water Conservation District will be present to share information about the brand-new Little Habitat Project and how to certify your yard or other habitat project.

Please RSVP on the Facebook event page and message Michelle Harvey or Kassi Roosth (kassi.roosth@marionswcd.net) for addresses 😊
All three yards are by Madrona and Commercial/Liberty.
