Feature gardens designed entirely or primarily with native plants.
Educate attendees about the increasing options and applications for native plants.

Answer questions about native plants and habitat restoration.
Thanks to generous homeowners, landscape designers, and area organizations, ELA invites you to join us for inspiration and education on these special tours to native plant gardens. The tours are free, but pre-registration to each garden is required. Some gardens have limited access, so register early. Free.
