About this Event
Is your landscape truly working for you? It can be more than just beautiful, it can be productive, resilient, and deeply rewarding. In this engaging class, Nursery Manager Corey Lorenz will explore how to transform your yard into a landscape that gives back year after year.
Discover a curated selection of hardy, high-performing perennial fruits well-suited to our Colorado climate. Plants and trees that not only thrive in our challenging conditions but also provide meaningful harvests. We will highlight both familiar favorites and unique, lesser-known options, including many North American natives that support pollinators and local ecosystems while producing delicious, usable crops.
This class goes beyond plant selection. You’ll learn how to thoughtfully incorporate fruits into your existing landscape design, blending beauty, function, and sustainability. From maximizing small spaces to creating multi-season interest, we’ll cover practical strategies for integrating these plants into a cohesive, low-maintenance garden.
Whether you're looking to supplement your grocery bill, reduce water use, support wildlife, or simply get more out of your outdoor space, this class will show you how fruits can bridge the gap between ecological restoration and traditional landscaping, creating a yard that works as hard as you do.
