The information at the series won't just apply to gardens and landscapes, but will also focus on how each of us and our communities can do more to strengthen our environment.

Interpretive and educational displays will be set-up on the Botanic Garden's Conservatory Terrace as well as in the National Garden and Bartholdi Park. Other organizations, agencies and individuals have been invited to participate in the series because of their commitment to sustainability.
