Happy Earth Day 🌍💚

The best part of loving where you live? Taking care of it — together. From shared gardens to quiet green spaces, it’s the collective effort that keeps things growing.

A day for the planet, a reminder for us 🌿

This community doesn’t grow on its own 💚

It grows because people show up — digging in the dirt, sharing knowledge, welcoming others, and giving their time in ways big and small. Because of generous volunteers, Lakewood continues to grow in all the right ways.

During National Volunteer Week, we thank and celebrate every person who helps support our mission.

Join us for a morning with Justin Husher, a pawpaw farmer from Northeast Ohio who runs Old Husher's Indigenous Orchards (OHIO) from two urban farm plots in Lakewood. Justin will give a talk on pawpaws — a native Ohio fruit from the Asimina triloba tree that grows in rich, moist soil, requires insect pollination, and ripen in late summer to early fall.

Justin will explain pawpaw's importance, including their native biodiversity, how they support pollinator and wildlife, cultural significance, and more.

We'll see you under the pavilion at Cove Park!

🐝🌸 It’s National Pollinator Week! 🌸🐝

Bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other pollinators may be small, but their impact on our gardens — and our planet — is huge. They help plants grow, flowers bloom, and food thrive. Without them, our gardens wouldn’t be nearly as colorful, diverse or productive. 🌿🌎

Every plant we grow that supports pollinators helps strengthen our local ecosystem right here in Lakewood. Let’s keep planting, protecting and appreciating these hardworking visitors all season long!
