GreenScapes 2023 - Designing With Purpose
GreenScapes 2023 - Designing With Purpose
If you need help with registration, please contact Maia Eskin at [email protected] or call 301-962-1407.
Whether a gardener living in the suburbs or a landscape architect developing commercial projects, we all design with specific purposes in mind. This symposium will offer design strategies to achieve a range of goals, from public gardens that engage diverse audiences to landscapes that reduce carbon footprints and are resilient to climate change. Speakers will also explore innovative design and maintenance practices that bring visual order to naturalistic gardens and make them more palatable to neighbors and HOAs. Though these landscape goals may seem unrelated, they can all be achieved by selecting the right building materials, understanding plant communities, and leveraging creative plant combinations. Join us to learn how!
For more information including a list of speakers and lecture descriptions, please visit www.brooksidegreen.org
***This will be offered as a series of live online lectures using Zoom with audience Q&A incorporated into the program. Each session will be recorded and a link to watch the symposium will be emailed to all participants.
