Green Bellevue

Learn about one of the largest retrofit rain gardens in Nebraska – a site that captures more than 4 million gallons of rain runoff annually- located at the Eastern Nebraska Veterans' Home! This site is also home to new pollinator habitat installed by Douglas/Sarpy County Master Gardeners. Join Green Bellevue to hear how these gardens serve to educate the public and provide veterans an opportunity to grow (and eat) vegetables. Take away best practices in gardening, information about rain gardens in your own yard, how to provide habitat for butterflies and all pollinating insects, and explore occasions to share the progress with the community. Remember to spring forward for Daylight Saving Time! Following this program, you are invited to join in an interactive Q&A session. Green Bellevue meetings are free and open to the public, so invite your friends! Please note that this meeting is at Bellevue University. NEW!
