# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Backyard Garden Construction Seminar
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 05:30 pm – Fri, 17 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: A practical seminar designed to take you from a patch of grass to a fully functional growing space. This seminar strips away the guesswork and focuses on the physical labor, materials, and structural decisions required to create a garden that lasts. We will walk through the entire construction process: from analyzing your yard for the best sun exposure and drainage to selecting rot-resistant building materials and installing irrigation. Whether you are building your first raised bed or setting up a “no-dig” plot, this class provides the confidence you need to build a garden with your own two hands.

Audience Target: Adults and teens ages 10+. Ideal for anyone looking to build their first garden, or for gardeners looking for other methods of garden construction.

Format: Seminar & Tour

Workshop Benefits/Learning Outcomes:
* Analyze Site Logistics: Participants will be able to evaluate their property to determine the optimal garden location based on solar aspect (minimum 6–8 hours of sunlight), proximity to a water source, and soil drainage patterns.
* Compare and Select Building Materials: Attendees will be able to identify the pros and cons of various construction materials balancing cost, longevity, and environmental safety.
* Design and Install Efficient Irrigation: Participants will be able to plan a basic drip irrigation or soaker hose system, including how to connect to an outdoor spigot and use a mechanical timer to automate watering.
* Construct Physical Pest Barriers: Attendees will learn how to build and attach protective structures, such as removable “low tunnels” or trellis frames, to defend crops against birds, deer, and common North Carolina insects.

Fee: $17 for non-members, $5 for members
