Every Saturday

Elizabeth River Project - Ryan Resilience Lab 4610 Colley Ave, Norfolk, VA 23508, USA

Join Wild Works of Whimsy and Southern Branch Nursery owner Trista Imrich to design your DIY River Star Homes conservation landscaping or shoreline buffer project. River Star Home participants will learn the art of native plant design and come away with a shovel-ready project for their property.

Once your DIY project is installed, the fee for the design project will be reimbursed toward the installation cost of your River Star Home project within the Elizabeth River Project watershed. Contact River Star Homes Program Manager Phoebe Murrell to see if your DIY project qualifies or with questions before registering – pmurrell@elizabethriver.org.
