Replace Your Lawn! Landscaping Strategies
March 12, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
$30If maintaining your lawn has gotten to be too much— too much water, fertilizer, pesticides, and herbicides, too much time, too much mowing, or just plain too much bother—then you’ll want to take this class! Learn to use alternative grasses and grass like plants to create beautiful ‘lawns’ that are low care and water-conserving.
In this one-day class, you will be guided, step-by-step, through the entire lawn-replacement process: from initial considerations of cost and difficulty, through selecting the right plants for your site, to soil preparation and planting, and finally, to the required maintenance.
Register by February 29 for early bird pricing ($30). After February 29th the course costs $35.
