Want to have a healthy backyard ecosystem that provides habitat and food for birds and beneficial insects such as bees and butterflies?

This class will cover basic concepts of garden design while you learn how to utilize native plants that play a critical role in the life cycles of our indigenous wildlife.
Bring a general layout of your yard to class highlighting locations of boundaries, existing plants, existing trees and locations of tree canopies, and walkway locations. During this class, you will learn about how to utilize native plants that play a critical role in the life cycles of our indigenous wildlife. We will discuss how to assess your current garden habitat and add features that will be both visually appealing and ecologically functional. We will also look at low impact methods of managing your landscape that will sustain the habitat you have created. By following a few basic guidelines we will cover in this class, you will be able to make your yard come to life.
