Participate and Get Involved at Keeler Gardens

Get Involved at Keeler Gardens

We are so very fortunate that you are interested in participating in our endeavors at Keeler Gardens. We thought a lot about how we can best serve our community with our message on the benefits of having a connection with nature. The answer is right here in our Old Irving Park garden. We have created a community resource here, for information and education. And we offer a place where members of the community can gather for experiences. We are really looking forward to having you join us at Keeler Gardens!

The front entrance at Keeler Gardens. Garden beds are outlined with custom pavers, creating waves and groupings of mixed color and texture. In the foreground a lilac shrub acts as a sentry to the low ground cover of chameleon plant, creeping Jenny, and lamb’s ear. In the background two distinct garden beds are separated by a small patch of grass. To the right are irises, spirea, blue false indigo, with Lamium and bugleweed acting as ground cover. In the background the front foundation garden offers hydrangea, more spirea, boxwood, campanula, and dogwood.
