Business in Front, Party in the Back - Designing a Native Landscape Your Neighbors will Appreciate

The Neighborly Mullet: Business in the Front, Party in the Back - How to Design a Native Landscape Your Neighbors will Appreciate
Tuesday, May 5th 2026. 7-8pm. University of Illinois Extension Auditorium. 100 US Highway 45, Grayslake. In-Person (virtual option available). This event is free and open to the public. Hosted by Wild Ones Lake-to-Prairie Chapter and the University of Illinois Extension - Lake County.

Sometimes, even the best-intended native landscape can be seen as offensive to some of the neighbors, or even the municipality. This presentation will offer tips, techniques and plant suggestions for front and backyard native landscaping, that will be sure to pacify even the most provincial passerby. Presented by David Neu, Native Landscape Designer and owner of NatureSpace LLC.
