Sustainable Solano presents 2017 sustainable landscaping classes for general public in Vallejo and Benicia Community Centers.
SUSTAINABLE LANDSCAPING FOR YOUR HOUSE
Adults and teens
Winter is a good time to start dreaming and planning about our garden renewal.
This is the perfect class for homeowners who are thinking about replacing a lawn or who would like to make their current landscapes resource-wise.
You will learn about sustainable landscaping: beautiful, productive, life-supporting ecosystem featuring trees and a variety of perennials fed by “secondary” water (greywater and rainwater). We’ll discuss edible landscaping, examine a few simple design plans, look into current turf replacement rebates and tell you about sustainable landscapers in our area.
Class is taught by local landscapers promoting sustainable landscaping practices.
