May Memorial Library | Burlington, NC

Lush Green Lawns have their uses but have you ever thought of utilizing your yard a little differently?
About this Event

Whether you want to be more environmentally friendly, mow less, have a space where grass won't grow, or just try something different, we have some options for you. It's important to note that there is no plant that can tolerate heavy use and be mown short the way turfgrass can. However, if you are willing to open your mind to changing the way you think a typical yard should look, this class is for you.


The class and demonstration will be held Thursday, June 5th from 6:00p.m to 7:00pm at The May Memorial Public Library: 342 S Spring St, Burlington, NC 27215. Taught by NC Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteers of Alamance County.


The class is free but registration is required.
