Summer Garden Walk

Join us for the long-awaited return of GRO’s Summer Garden Walk! Stroll through your neighbors’ gardens, get ideas and inspiration for your own, and appreciate the beauty of summer in Chicago!
Attending the event is free with a $10 suggested donation. Proceeds will benefit GRO’s corner gardens initiative and Lawrence Hall’s Serenity Garden.
Register your garden by July 5th!
Register here to show off your garden if you live within GRO’s boundaries by July 5th.
All gardens welcome! Front yards, back yards, parkways, corners, patios, courtyards…if you love it, we want to see it!
When? Saturday, July 26th between 11am-3pm — rain or shine!
Where? Start your walk at Waters Elementary School garden to pick up a map and enter our raffles!
Join us after the walk for a summer celebration at The Green Post—where 15% of your order will benefit GRO Corner Gardens & Lawrence Hall! Cheers!
Become a Volunteer!
Do you have 2-3 extra hours per month? We need neighbors to help with any of our events, including the annual summer party, garage sales, and holiday drives.
Email GRO Events to find out how you can help.
No time to volunteer? You can still help by becoming a member. Membership dues are the donations we need to keep doing what we do.
