BYOB & Plant a Tree: In-Person Workshop

In this workshop, you will learn the fundamental steps to Build Your Own Basin (BYOB) and plant a rain garden. This BYOB workshop is led by Joaquin Murrieta, WMG Cultural Ecologist, and Lauren Monheim, WMG River Run Network Program Manager, at our Living Lab and Learning Center (1137 N Dodge Blvd).  They will guide you step by step on how to build your own basin in your yard to capture rain and plant a native shade tree! 

 

Everyone who participates in this workshop qualifies to receive one of our BYOB kits (with a limit of one kit per household). With your attendance at this workshop, you can take home a BYOB Kit before you leave our Living Lab and Learning Center! If you do not attend this Workshop, you are not eligible for a BYOB Kit. BYOB Kits are limited to one kit per household. If you received a BYOB Kit in the Spring, you are not eligible for a BYOB Kit this Fall.

 

Your BYOB Kit includes a native shade tree, wildflower seeds, native shrubs or grasses (if available), organic mulch, and WMG’s first-ever zine with step-by-step instructions on BYOB to get you started. Learn more about BYOB on our website. This event and the BYOB kits are limited to 20 participants.
