GLEN STREAM
RESTORATION TOUR
Have you heard of the Glen Stream at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden and do you know where it’s hidden on the Garden campus? A few years ago, this stream had been overrun by invasive plants and subject to pollution runoff which contributed to erosion and poor water quality. If you live in an urban environment, you may be familiar with this type of situation in your own neighborhood. The Glen Stream Restoration project is a landscape solution to slow the water, mitigate the stormwater runoff and allow the water to be absorbed in a way that benefits the soil and encourages plant, insect and animal diversity to return. With completion of the restoration done 1 1/2 years ago, come join Garden Guide, Lorrie Lincoln to see how things are progressing. Please note we will be walking on uneven surfaces. Meet in the atrium of the Robins Visitors Center.
All programs are subject to change.
