Many homeowners face challenges such as water management issues, invasive plant pressure, erosion, and underutilized outdoor spaces. At the same time, thoughtfully designed landscapes can provide critical habitat and food sources for pollinators, birds, and other wildlife increasingly under pressure in our fragmented environments.In this engaging and practical session, John Hemmerle, founder of Our Land Organics, shares real-world case studies and a collaborative design framework used to heal the land, solve site challenges, and create enjoyable outdoor living spaces through organic and ecological practices.You will learn:A practical framework for balancing ecological impact, functionality, and aesthetics in residential landscapes.How to address common site challenges such as drainage issues, erosion, and invasive species through ecological design strategies.Approaches for removing invasive plants such as honeysuckle and wintercreeper and restoring landscapes with dense native plant communities.How pollinator-supportive plantings can be intentionally woven into residential landscapes to support bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects while also creating seasonal beauty and visual interest.Ways to thoughtfully incorporate hardscaping elements such as patios, pathways, and gathering spaces into ecological landscapes.Strategies for implementing complex projects through phased planning, budget-conscious decision making, and homeowner involvement opportunities.Whether you are working with a steep hillside, a front yard overrun with invasives, or a compact blank slate, this class will expand your vision for what is possible.
