About the Event
Join us for a volunteer planting day at McKinney Green Gardens! We’ll be planting 400 native plants to help create a vibrant, resilient space that supports pollinators, wildlife, and our local ecosystem.
This community event is hosted by Blackland Prairie Master Naturalists, Keep McKinney Beautiful, Youth Creating Change, One Earth One Chance, and Texas Conservation Alliance. Whether you're an experienced gardener or new to planting, all are welcome to roll up their sleeves and make a lasting impact!
McKinney Green Gardens is located in Gabe Nesbitt Park, between the water tower and Hillsdale Drive. Volunteers will help remove weeds and plant native species while learning about drought-tolerant gardening, water conservation, watershed protection, and the value of prairie habitat for insects, birds, and other wildlife.
What to bring:
Water to stay hydrated
Sunscreen and bug spray
Tools will be provided. Come help us grow a healthier, more resilient North Texas!
