March 28, 2005 - "Designing for Curb Appeal" ~ An Agriculture Extension Office Workshop

Does your landscape need to be redesigned? Don't you need help in creating your paradise? If so, then join us for our two day Landscape Design Workshop.

Students attending the workshop will learn how to evaluate their current landscape and develop an environmentally friendly landscape plan for their yards. The two part workshop includes:

Session One: Landscape professionals will discuss basic principles of landscape design, and Florida landscape plants and their uses. Students will take the tools learned during this session and prepare a template of their current landscape. This template will be used in the second session.

Session Two: During the second session students will use their landscape template to create a design for their landscape. Landscape professionals will be on hand to help the students with the design process and give personal feedback.

Workshop 2 (Saturday's 8:00am until noon) May 7 & 14, 2005
