BULB, PLANT & SEED SWAP

BRING SOMETHING. TAKE SOMETHING.

Saturday, October 12 • 10 AM - 1 PM, Edgebrook Library, 5331 West Devon, 2nd Floor Community Room

Do you love to garden and hate to waste?

There are so many plant choices but often not enough space. Consider swapping those extra bulbs, plants and seeds.

Seeds can be dropped off beginning on Oct 7th at Edgebrook Library. All bulbs and plants must be divided and labeled prior to the swap and dropped off the morning of the event.

Do you have ten trowels too many, or could you really use a bulb planter?

Please donate your new/gently used garden supplies beginning on Oct 7th, and visit the Bulb, Plant & Seed Swap to pick up a new-to-you tool to complete your fall garden project.

Sponsored by the Edgebrook Community Association.

Snow Plowing Service provided by the ECA

The City of Chicago’s primary concern is keeping the major traffic arteries clear. Plowing side streets is a much lower priority for the Department of Streets and Sanitation.

The ECA, on the other hand, is concerned about emergency vehicle access to our side streets as well as the ability of our neighbors to get out of the neighborhood and off to work in a timely fashion.

The ECA notifies our plowing contractor when snow fall reaches four inches. The contractor clears a path down the center of the street. The goal is not total snow removal, but rather the creation of an access path for emergency vehicles as well as egress for our neighbors.

The ECA provides snow plow service to this area, excluding the major city streets.
