So You Want Less Lawn…

Tuesday, February 16, 2027, 5:30-6:30PM

Overview

Join this program to gain pragmatic perspectives about how to approach the processes of both reducing and replacing a turf lawn, and the benefits of doing so for both humans and wildlife. Explore organic-based turf removal and the vital role of living soil. Discover how to work with alternative grasses, meadow-style plantings, or a mixed composition. This interactive presentation will include multiple case studies that showcase different plant palettes and planting styles, and that students can use as inspiration for their own projects.

Elective Credit Hours: 1.0

A recording of this class will be available for 30 days after the class date.
