Pilsen 3rd Annual ‘Paseo De Jardines’ Garden Walk
Maps and information will be available at the school. A bus will leave the Orozco parking lot at West 17th between Damen and S. Wolcott at 4pm. We encourage you to bike the route.
Enjoy an entertaining and informative 2 hour bus tour through the heart of Pilsen and visit a select group of beautiful community gardens in Pilsen. Refreshing beverages will be served at each stop. The last garden will have a small reception where winners of the Garden Tour Raffle will be announced. Pilsen gardens exemplify the importance of conservation. They contain Monarch Butterfly sanctuaries, Native Prairie plantings, Organic vegetable gardens, Creative Reuse and recycling. The garden walk is sponsored by Alianza Verde – Greening Alliance, a coalition of Pilsen gardens that support Green initiatives, more green space, wildlife and environmental conservation. We’re a grassroots volunteer organization. We welcome new members who share our interests.
This 2012 tour is supported in part by NeighborSpace and Openlands.
