Friends of the Farm present lecture by Master Gardener Rebecca Last
Homeowners need to consider numerous details before embarking on a garden renovation. Rebecca will discuss the key questions and the three pillars of garden design. She will also talk about “getting grounded,” assessing your space, determining what stays and what goes, sketching it out, scoping the work, DIY versus hiring professionals, and conclude with some brief notes on budgeting.
