Chicago Greencorps Plant Giveaway

Your Garden Show - Katie Swietlik

Earlier this season Greencorps Chicago hosted one of their big plant giveaways for Chicagoland gardeners.

Greencorps, a division of Chicago’s Department of Natural Resources, provides city gardeners with plant material as well as planning and labor initiatives for spaces that have been qualified as community gardens.

It was a great day, with lots of happy gardeners as busy as bees. Up next, Greencorps’ Great Perennial Divide on September 25th!
