Garden Design: Final Plan to Fruition

Whether you’re working on a new garden design or revising an existing space, this class will address both the large-scale process and the detailed specifics of your design. After a brief recap of the design process to ensure comprehension and strengthen the core intent of our designs, we’ll work together in a collaborative workshop, presenting and providing constructive feedback on students’ unique design efforts. In this final installment of our series, students should come prepared with a design project they’ve been working on and a readiness to bring their landscape to full life. Students will be responsible for their own design materials, supply list available upon registration.

Please note this class requires participants to show proof of having received all eligible Covid-19 vaccinations, as recommended for their age by the CDC, in order to participate. Because of the dynamic nature of this situation, we ask that you agree to abide by potential future changes in CMBG’s Covid-19 policy designed to address evolving public health recommendations.
