Design & Plan An Edible Landscape Workshop

April 6, 2019 @ 9:00 am - April 7, 2019 @ 4:30 pm

$499.00 – $599.00

Learn how to DESIGN a beautiful garden of Eden, a Willy Wonka factory of fruit and veg, a head turning conversation piece, or just a quiet relaxing property!

Over the course of 2 weekends you will learn how to create a healthy, beautiful, food producing landscape with less working, weeding, and watering!

~-~-~-~-~-~~-~-~-~-~-~~-~-~-~-~-~

WEEKEND 1 – April 6/7
-Learn the basics of sustainable landscape design, clarify your needs and values, and get into the thick of what you are going to include in your design, where it should go, and why.
-You will learn how to survey so you can work with water to make your property greener, resilient to drought, and save you money from irrigating.
-You will also start a large to-scale map of your property in class which will become the basis of your master-plan to turn your ideas and dreams into reality.
-You will get personalized advice and feedback from the teacher so any design work you do before the second weekend is effort well spent.

WEEKEND 2 – April 13/14
-Take your penciled in rough ideas and turn them into your finished design.
-Learn how to design in trees and vegetation to scale, phase your project into realistic steps, and then use the provided resources and supplier connections to take your measurements and vegetation wishlist and translate them into quotes.
-You will also be provided with tips and tutorials on how to take your design to the next level with so it’s easy for others to follow and becomes a work of art worth putting on the wall.
