Day in the Garden
Natural Landscaping Workshop
January
16, 1-4 pm, Moraine Park Technical College,
Room 0-104.
If you
are curious about how to naturalize
your backyard, come to this workshop. The
basics of creating a naturalized backyard will be
introduced
by Ted Eischeid. During the workshop session
you will devise a development plan for your yard
based on your objectives. You will then sketch a plan
proposal using a scaled map of your property, along
with a timeline. Come prepared with the dimensions
of your property and any buildings on the site. You
will leave with a plan, knowledge, and resources to
make your yard the natural paradise you have always
desired. Limit: 20 participants. Contact Margie Winter
at jmwinter@charter.net or 920-923-2490 to reserve
a spot.
