Come join us on Saturday, June 14th

 
This spruce-up we will be removing invasive plants and replacing the area with native ones.
These natives will be used in the future for outdoor classroom instruction in Westgate’s own
certified schoolyard habitat area. Master gardeners will be on hand to answer questions on
how to create a backyard habitat in your own backyard. Bring your gloves clippers, shovels,
trowels, wheelbarrow and/or any other garden tool favorite. Don’t have tools? No problem,
bring yourself and you can borrow some of ours.
