Walk on the Wild Side, Dorothy & Joe Robin, Saturday, September 16, 2023, 10am

  • Sep 16th @ 10:00am - Sep 16th @ 10:00am
  • The Robin Property
  • The Wildflower Preservation and Propagation Committee

Description: This 3 acre property has a variety of habitats: pond, steep slope, partial forest and dry and sunny. The native gardens range from brand new to 5 years old.  Come learn from our mistakes and successes!  Some of our planting goals have been to create low maintenance gardens in each habitat,  provide food and shelter for wildlife, create areas of interest with various ‘rooms’ and paths and to complement the neighbors’ yards.  Ever since we started putting native plants in, we haven’t needed to buy chrysanthemums in the fall since we have an abundance of color created by the native plants. You should receive a colorful welcome during this mid-September walk.  We’ll discuss the various habitats, plants, design features and tree ID.  All WPPC garden walks are free of charge and there is no pre-registration required.  This is not an open house.  The guided walk led by the homeowners will start at the posted time.

Directions: From Woodstock proceed North on Route 47. At the next intersection north of Charles Rd make a sharp left on Raycraft. Turn Right/West on Jankowski and proceed 1.3 miles. Turn right (north) on Billingsgate. We are on the East side of the road at the north-east corner of Appleby Court and Billingsgate Lane.  4410 Billingsgate Ln, Woodstock, IL  60098
