Cold and wet have you stalling on creating the site of your dreams? Have no fear! because late fall and winter are great times to plan for next season!

This four-hour workshop will be one part theory, and one part design studio. Participants will bring plans of their existing site and go through a process of creating a basic concept plan for their property, as well as beginning to identify specific elements (whether plants, structures, or hardscape features) that can be implemented in the spring (or even over the winter, if appropriate).

Leonard Barrett will offer his landscape design and contracting experience to help participants develop functional plans that serve their site, while staying cost effective and minimizing labor.

Participants will be required to bring a to-scale plan of their existing site (tips on site mapping will be available). Other design supplies will be provided for use as a part of the workshop fee.
