About this Event
In this class, we’ll start to sketch out your space and brainstorm ideas for how to begin. Students are asked to submit photos, dimensions, and questions(directions for this in the confirmation email following a ticket purchase) for their backyard area of focus, and the instrcutor and class members will suggest ideas. As we work through each person's project, we'll learn more about design principles and ways to create a more beautiful and functional outdoor space.
Attendance at the first class is recommended, but it is not required. You may learn more about Garden Design 1 and sign up for it on .
