Greening Wave Hill
Sustainability at the Forefront
Wave Hill is moving forward with widespread sustainable practices, and we need your help. Current priorities are natural pest management, removing plastic and peat from our potting shed and replacing gas-powered garden equipment with new electric models.
In addition, the effects of climate change require enhancements to the treatment plans for our notable trees and natural collection, doubling our budget to keep specimens healthy.
