The Naturalized Landscape Course - Spring Session Help us spread the word! Beginning in March, our award-winning, flagship course is back, with three sessions being offered in Windsor, Leamington and our recent addition, Essex! This year we're offering our traditional six part course, along with some new options and schedules. Each of these courses provides the best of traditional landscape concepts for planning, design and construction. In addition, we offer practical advice on using native plants, attracting wildlife and creating a landscape that is suited to your needs. We’ve held down the cost of registration to $50, tax exempt. Each course is offered on a weekly basis, over a six week basis. All classes begin at 7:00 PM and typically last about 2 hours.
Beginning Tuesday, March 9 - Essex, presenting our condensed five-part course at the Essex County Civic & Education Centre. Only $42 per person, text book extra.

What's Native & What's Not Thanks to a grant from the Essex County Stewardship Network, we can now offer the presentation "What's Native & What's Not" to all non-profit organizations in Windsor & Essex County. This presentation is about 40 minutes in length and can modified to different venues and circumstances. This presentation can also be offered to groups outside of Essex County, which would include a nominal mileage fee.
