Would you like to get involved with Love Your Alley but not sure where to start? Join us for this Prospective Participant Workshop share ideas and learn more about restoring biodiversity in Bexley.

We will have local residents from last year’s winning alley talking about how they got started planning and how they worked together with their neighbors. We will have local artists, master gardeners and native plant landscapers available to talk through ideas. 

If you’re interested in making some changes to your alley or yard, come connect with Green Bexley's Love Your Alley.

Envision our alleys and yards as lush gardens filled with native plants, pollinators, and beautiful artwork. During the month of May, Love Your Alley will help create that vision by providing classes, instruction, plants, artists, and plant installation teams (if you need help with your native garden). You can work individually or collaborate with neighbors to make our alleys greener and more beautiful.

Love Your Alley is about transforming our underutilized alleys into extended living space for everyone to enjoy. By planting native plants, we are cultivating our land to create a Homegrown National Park in 43209 to support our ecosystem. Native plants pack a powerful sustainability punch: they support our pollinators, assist in flood prevention, fight climate change, and protect the aesthetic that defines the Midwest. Go Buck(eye Trees)!

With the majority of land in the US developed or used for agriculture our ecosystems are threatened. Homeowners are in an incredible position to restore biodiversity and protect ecosystems and it’s as simple as using our properties to plant native!

Thank you Bexley Community Foundation for the generous grant to make LYA 2023 possible.
