Go Wild with Your Gardening

January 31, 2026

You Have the Power to Make a Difference

Gardening for nature explored from different angles by published authors, community educators and professors. It is easier to go wilder with your gardening when you understand where you and your location fit into the bigger picture.

Access to nature is rare in many urban environments but you can transition to a more wildlife-friendly garden or greenspace and enhance your connection with nature. All levels of gardening experience are welcome for this full day of learning. Join us and find the tools you need to make your garden positively contribute to our natural Georgia network.

How we garden at home and in the community makes a big difference in the natural world.
