Design a basic plan for a garden that requires less maintenance, fewer inputs, and is well adapted to your local conditions. Change your perspective, and increase the life in your landscape by decreasing space dedicated to lawn. Learn how to measure, inventory, and analyze your site, then make a conceptual design and planting plan. Important materials for enrolled students may be found on our website. The required text for this course, Principles of Ecological Landscaping by Travis Beck, is available at a discounted rate from Mt. Cuba Center for enrolled students.
