Learning with Nature | Design an Ecological Landscape

Ecological landscaping is a crucial tool in combating climate change, creating healthy built environments, and improving our quality of life.

Learn the basics of ecological landscape design and how you can apply these principles to your community or home landscape. We will explore how to work with your landscape, increase biodiversity all the while creating a more resilient low maintenance landscape. A short classroom portion will be followed by a walk of the ecological landscape of Grace Farms.

Learning with Nature

An evolution of our gardening workshops, this series invites all generations to see nature at work with Kimberly Kelly, Director of Horticulture. Through guided walks, Garden visits, and indoor instruction, connect with the purpose of the ecosystems we inhabit, the vibrant life that’s a part of it, and our role in maintaining and adding to it. This summer, Kimberly brings us meaningful ways to connect with the natural world by teaching participants to plant gardens, manage beehives, notice the life of butterflies and dragonflies, and increase biodiversity in the landscape.
