Join local landscape architect, M. Elise Huggins, for a 3-day home landscape design class. You will learn the basics of design and how to apply them to your yard.  Beginning with how to know your yard, the climate and micro-climate, existing plants and views and topography and neighbors and such, the discussion will go from understanding your site, to understanding your needs and finding opportunities and constraints that will help lead to a concept and way forward for designing your own landscape.

Class meets Thursday evenings from 6:00-8:00pm, Feb. 20th, Feb. 27th and March 6th. This is a 3-day class no single day registrations. A $10 cancellation fee applies for all cancellations.
