Unfortunately, we have to cancel the Green Thumbs Saturday scheduled for August.

We’ll be back on the second Saturday of September for our final Green Thumbs of the season, featuring Karl Pearson, arborist and member of Village of Homewood, Illinois’ TREE Committee. Karl will be talking about shrub and tree pruning and we hope you can join us! 🌳✂️
