Description

Join us for the grand opening of the Betty Swan Community Arboretum, a living laboratory in Chicago's North Lawndale neighborhood where residents, students, and TreeKeepers learn about and practice caring for urban trees. The arboretum results from a unique partnership between Openlands and the North Lawndale Greening Committee, on land owned by NeighborSpace.

All TreeKeepers and the general public are welcome. Refreshments will be served. For more information, please contact Openlands Community Greening Director Glenda Daniel via e-mail or by phone at 312-863-6255.
