Creativo! Community Garden
🌿 Growing Together Through Nature and Play
We’re proud to be the first Certified Outdoor Classroom in Illinois recognized by the Arbor Day Foundation, right here at Creativo! Toys & Games.
Our Community Garden is a living, growing classroom — a place where children, families, and neighbors can connect with nature, learn through exploration, and discover the joy of hands-on gardening.
What We Do
- Nature Education: Year-round outdoor learning and seasonal planting projects that inspire curiosity and care for the environment.
- Annual Garden Walk: In partnership with the Edgebrook Community Association — join us each summer to celebrate local gardens and creative outdoor spaces. (2025 date to come!)
- Youth & Service Projects: We support local students earning service hours and offer service learning opportunities for Scout groups and community volunteers.
- Community Connection: The garden brings together families, educators, and neighbors to share ideas, resources, and the beauty of growing things together.
