EarthFlow Design Works' 10 years of helping homeowners convert their Lawns into Gardens continues:

All in one weekend!
Learn how to transform a water-guzzling lawn into a garden paradise complete with spiraling pathways, food forest with edible plants, medicinals, natives, Mediterranean, subtropicals -and plenty of bird, bee and butterfly attracting flowers too...

Get dirty, build a garden and learn the basics of sustainable landscaping, drip irrigation, permaculture, Food Forestry and sustainable living with one of the West coast’s leading and most experienced Permaculture Design Planning & Design firms, EarthFlow Design Works http://www.earthflow.com

“...Lawns cover more than 50,000 square miles of American soil and consume more fertilizer, pesticide and herbicide than all chemicals used in food related agriculture...”


Urgent calls to reduce consumer water use make headlines daily and farmers are concerned that sufficient water for crops is becoming increasingly scarce. Replacing lawns with gardens makes sense from any angle. Whether you’re a homeowner tired of mowing grass and paying huge water bills, a foodie who wants to become a "grow-your-own gourmet", or a concerned citizen who wants to learn more about food security, this community workshop will expand your knowledge and skills.
