Grow Green with the Garden

Green Tip of the Week


Sponsored by
KSDK

Within the St. Louis region, the Garden is currently one of a kind in educating and demonstrating sustainable life style choices—choices that minimize our current and future impact on plants, our local environment, and the world at large.

Plants and their ecosystems continue to be negatively impacted by human behaviors and choices related to the food we eat, the homes and buildings we construct and operate, the products we produce and consume, and the transportation methods we employ.

The Garden offers numerous classes, and activities related to green living and making incorporating sustainable choices into our every day lives. Our programs address the needs of individuals, families, homeowners, business owners, community leaders, and teachers.
