Create a beautiful landscape for your home or project and learn the basic principles of landscape design. Learn how to avoid common mistakes made by

beginners and experienced professionals alike and enjoy a self-created, successful garden of your own design. In this five-session workshop, you are invited to participate in an intensive curriculum with both classroom and homework. The course has been

developed to allow a homeowner with minimal to basic

garden knowledge to use their own property as a class project resulting in a well-thought out

landscape plan.
