About this Event

Gardens  don’t happen in a vacuum; they must be  planned  well in advance. “Structure” is created by the architect well before the first shovel of soil is added. In our first field trip of the season attendees will explore the importance of public access and engagement with green spaces in shaping a sense of belonging and stewardship.  Join us for a tour of the National Mall.
