North Buffalo M2M (Member to Member) Yard Tour Members Only
2 gardens in North Buffalo
Members Only Home/Private Garden Tour
Let’s check out two WILD urban gardens — these are not your grandma’s garden! We will visit a tiny North Buffalo front yard that is bursting with life. This mature garden is packed with natives and pushes the boundaries of a “front lawn”. Additionally, we will visit the front garden of the Tool Library on Main Street where they have added tons of native plants since moving two years ago. This is another space that isn’t afraid of large vigorous plants! Must see for our “re-wilding” folks.
Exact location will be emailed to registered attendees before the event.

Amherst/Snyder M2M Yard Tour (Member to Member) Members Only
Members Only Home/Private Garden Tour
For our last member garden tour of 2025, we will visit the FIRST Wild Ones Certified Native Habitat in Western New York. This front yard blends existing landscaping with several prominent native plant beds. The garden is loaded with “cues to care” and will provide inspiration and ideas for all native gardeners but, especially, for those who are looking to get started in their native plant journey to reduce the lawn and add natives!
Exact location will be emailed to registered attendees before the event.
