Join us in San Jose, CA on Saturday, December 10th, 2016 from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM for a unique day of landscape design using the Watershed Approach. This class puts professional landscape designers and contractors next to property/homeowners to help everyone make the most out of their landscape. In the morning we will be getting the basics. After a delicious lunch, we work in teams in a hands-on design seminar.
For property/homeowners, learn how to replace your lawn with a climate appropriate garden and create your own landscape design. This six-hour interactive workshop identifies the steps for successfully designing a water wise landscape – including;
▪ Understanding and contouring for rainwater
▪ Creating a list of climate appropriate plants
▪ Placing plant symbols on a plan using key design principals
Bring a 1/4″ scale drawing of your property (a site plan) to this class for more specific ideas for YOUR landscape.
For professional landscape designers and contractors, learn about the “new normal” in California landscapes — the Watershed Approach helps your clients conserve water, improve water quality, build healthy living soil for the benefit of healthy plants, all without sacrificing the beauty we’ve come to appreciate in California landscapes.
This class is hosted by the Association of Professional Landscape Designers (APLD) Bay Area District and co-sponsored by San Jose Conservation Corps & Charter School, and California Native Garden Foundation. Funding for the workshop is provided by CA Department of Water Resources.
Start time: 9:00 AM, so arrive at least 15 minutes early to register and get settled into your seat.
