Summer Gardening Series at East Greenbush Community Library-Unlawning: Lawning Alternatives

• Tuesday, September 1, 2026, 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Join us for the fourth event of our Sustainability Series! Learn how to create an ecologically abundant environment without compromising aesthetic. From the 16th Century when cleared area was created for livestock protection to the 17th Century when a large lawn was a symbol of wealth to the 20th Century when a lawn was a norm, the lawn has served various purposes. However, has "the lawn" outlived its usefulness? What are the alternatives? We explore the why and how of creating a more ecologically rich environment while maintaining aesthetic appeal. Principles of permaculture and regenerative gardening inform various approaches.

Registration is required.  Registration for this event will open on August 4th and will be done on the East Greenbush Community Library website.  Visit their website at https://eglibrary.org/

This program is made possible by the generous support of the Friends of the East Greenbush Community Library, a patron-supported non-profit organization.
