Naturescaping Basics Workshop

This workshop introduces the concept of naturescaping: chemical free landscaping with native plants, and also covers:

• time and maintenance savings
• reduction/elimination of water and chemical use
• increasing and improving wildlife habitat
• watershed stewardship
• basic site or project planning and many other great gardening tips

Workshop participants get to view before and after naturescaping examples, take a field trip to a nearby project, get advice on landscape design and native gardening, network with neighbors, and learn about native plants. Every participant receives a comprehensive workbook and a native plant to help them get started.

This workshop is brought to you by East Multnomah Soil and Water Conservation District.
