Additional info:         An Urban/Suburban
Ecoliteracy workshop is a prerequisite
for this workshop because the workshop's leaders are teaching you a comprehensive system for garden
and landscape success and sustainability.  Firm deadline for registration is May 29th, no  exceptions. Free 
residential street parking available on Ralston Avenue.

If you’re new to Permaculture and you are eager to apply its 
principles to landscape, natural building, a solar water heating system, or a photovoltaic system, etc., site analysis skills are an absolute must-have. You can’t learn to work with nature as a partner if you don’t know her 
rules. (You might be surprised to hear how often this basic tenet is 
ignored or overlooked!)

Conventional garden design 
classes teach principles of design and about specific plants that you 
might use in your own gardens, but they often do not teach you what 
those plants need to thrive. Gardening classes on the other hand will 
teach you techniques and tips that will enhance your success but won’t 
necessarily give you specific information tailored for your particular 
garden. Every site is different, so each deserves recommendations that are tailored specifically for you and your 
garden/landscape.

Is there a way to eliminate 
garden trial-and-error? Absolutely!

The key to:
•    Reducing water usage for gardens and landscapes
•    Sharply reducing plant losses
•    Saving time, money, and energy in your garden or landscape
boils down to one very important strategy – match the needs of the 
plants with what a site provides.

In this two-part workshop, 
you’ll learn a system to implement this strategy. You’ll spend less 
effort and money on guessing, suffer less heartbreak from losing 
cherished plants, and more time enjoying the fruits of your garden and 
landscape success more consistently.
