New Sustainable Lawns & Landscapes Workshop Scheduled

Sustainable Lawns & Landscapes: Design & Installation Workshop

The Green Center at Lincoln Land Community College is hosting a Sustainable Lawns & Landscapes: Design & Installation workshop on April 7, 2012, from 9 a.m. to noon at the Workforce Careers Center (room 1169).

This course is perfect for beginners as well as those who have already taken our introductory Sustainable Lawns & Landscapes workshop.

In the 3-hour class, instructor Cathy Bilow of Grieder Landscaping will cover designing your landscape for energy efficiency (including your own), water conservation, and biodiversity. Learn how to evaluate what you have and prepare a master plan and budget. We will also cover proper installation practices that will result in healthy, long-lived plantings. There will be many inspiring ideas to help you create your own sustainable, beautiful, yet functional Midwestern oasis.

The cost is $12 for students with a valid ID and $24 for all other attendees. Click here to register or contact Julie Bates at julie.bates@llcc.edu or 217.786.2434. The registration deadline is April 4, 2012.
