Creating a Rock Garden

Also known as alpine gardens or rockeries, rock gardens provide numerous benefits for both the homeowner and the environment. In this class you will learn different ways of using stone to construct habitats and create solutions for challenging spaces in your garden. Come along with environmental educator and habitat gardener Michelle Reynolds as she takes you on a virtual tour of some of her favorite wild places featuring rocky trails, glades, bluffs, creek beds, and scree. We’ll explore plant communities the rocky nooks and gravely soils support, and view examples of how to mimic these types of habitats in garden settings.

Members: $20 | Nonmembers: $25
