Sunday July 12 from 1-5pm.​​​​

Welcome to this year's Garden Walk hosted by the Glenview Gardeners. 

There is no specific order to visit the gardens, but the list below is arranged West to East. 

This event is free to the public.

​

John & Lynne's Garden

Address: 1237 Longmeadow Drive, Glenview 

Green Living, inside and out, is what sets this home and garden apart. Beehives help pollinate the flower and vegetable gardens which have been expanded this year. A conifer garden in front enhances curb appeal. An extensive rain-barrel system waters the gardens while a state-of-the-art solar system powers many of the mechanicals for this home.

 

Mary and Dick’s Garden

Address: 2309 Linden Leaf Drive, Glenview

During the pandemic, we planted a native garden to solve a sump pump discharge problem and to attract pollinators to our yard. It succeeded on both counts. My husband drilled 350 holes to plant the natives.  Being on our hands and knees in the front yard every day helped us meet so many of our neighbors who were getting out of the house to take walks that summer. Come see our garden — our drawings that designed it, the pictures showing how it’s evolved, and today’s garden that’s so different from what we imagined.

 

Katie's Garden

Address: 930 Huckleberry Lane, Glenview

My garden is a mix of things I love: raised bed for vegetables, herbs, and cut flowers, all surrounded by a perennial garden that’s grown with me over the years. I tuck annuals into pots in many spots to add pops of color and a little whimsy. It’s a lived in, welcoming garden, full of plants that make me happy.

Judy's Garden

Address:  931 Huckleberry Lane, Glenview

Garden beds wrap around the house and the back yard, containing a mix of perennials for succession bloom from spring into fall.  There are some native plants in every bed, and one bed devoted to natives that benefit the largest number of pollinator species.

 

Michael's Garden

Address: 633 Echo Lane, Glenview

A 1/4 acre garden, previously overgrown with more than a dozen 20 ft buckthorn trees and honeysuckles, this yard is a 4-year-old in-process mix of native and ecological restoration, hydrology and flood management, cut flower gardening, ecological and child recreational use.
