Conservation Garden Design Workshop
The perfect class for Do-It-Yourself gardeners interested in native plants!
If you are interested in designing and constructing a Rain Garden, Bayscape or Edible Bayscape, this hands-on learning experience is for you. You will learn the principles of design and how to apply them to solve your stormwater problems. Each participant will determine which Best Management Practice (BMP) is best for resolving stormwater issues at their site: Rain Garden, Bayscape, or Edible Bayscape. You will be provided with the information, reference materials, and techniques to prepare your own site design.
Location: Faith Lutheran Church (8 Sherwood Rd, Cockeysville, MD 21030)
Time: 10:00 am – 3:00 pm
NOTE: This workshop has a recommended donation amount of $25 (due to each attendee receiving personalized landscape advice from Gunpowder Valley Conservancy professionals). Thank you for supporting our programming!
