Join us on a garden walk to see 4 Omaha area gardens in their fall glory! Most of these gardens participated in the Bloom Box program and have a focus on pollinator gardening but they are all unique. Maps will be provided so you can visit the gardens at your own pace. $5 per car.

Get to know the Gardens:

Garden A showcases the connection between native pollinators and human food. So many of our favorite fruits and vegetables wouldn’t be available without pollinators and these folks know that. They celebrate these valuable garden residents by planting habitat alongside their produce gardens. With garden plots, composting, rain barrels and a “help yourself” neighborhood garden there is much to see and learn from here.

Garden B: This garden is a combination of Bloom Box plants and other favorites. One side of the yard is very sunny and the other shady, with an ongoing attempt to establishing cohesive waves of plants across the whole landscape.

Garden C: Can a landscape design become a reality in just one season? Bloom Box uses a layered approach to garden design that results in full and luscious landscape in years to come, but it can happen surprisingly quickly. Gardeners can explore how to get started in their own yard.

Garden D: A well established site, this site has over 15 years of pollinator plantings and tree establishment. Woody plants (trees and shrubs) are vital to pollinator survival, providing shelter for hibernation as well as some of the earliest and latest food sources.

*Digital maps will be sent out 1-2 days before the event.
