Orchid Black & David King
Greener Gardens: Sustainable Garden Practice will start this Tuesday evening, June 21 and run through August 16. This class is one of the elective classes for the Gardening and Horticulture Certificate Program and the Sustainability Certificate Program.
David and I have taught this course for several years at this point. We are ever astounded at the quality of our students and their willingness to approach a different way of looking at our everyday life and how our gardens are a point of impact on the world. Every action we take in our lives aligns our lifestyle with sustainability or not. What can we change as individuals to minimize our life’s impact and in what way do we compromise?
This is not the definitive course on being sustainable, but it does impact the way we act in out immediate environment and with our food. This course features more than just a few aha moments!
We meet on the campus of Venice High School – in The Learning Garden. Please plan on parking on Walgrove or on Venice Blvd and enter through our gate on Walgrove Avenue (the first gate you come to as you proceed south on Walgrove Avenue). Once in the Garden, venture in and follow the voices! You can find the syllabus for this term here.
