Lawn Restoration & Beautification
If you want to take control of your yard and have a lawn you'll be proud of (and your neighbors will envy), then this class is for you.  Come learn how to win the battle against weeds and leave your lawn looking thick, beautiful and lush.  You'll learn it all, from assessment to treatment to creating your own plan of attack.  Let's face it, if you're going to put in all that time on the back side of your lawn mower - you might as well have the best looking lawn on the block!

Butterflies and Blooms:  Creating a Butterfly Garden
Are you looking for a way to beautify your yard while attracting butterflies to your garden?  As more and more of their habitat is lost to urban development, you have the opportunity to preserve these "flying flowers."  Come and join us in learning how to create a butterfly garden that will attract, retain, and encourage butterfly populations to visit. Think of the wonderful fun you and your children or grandchildren will have in watching and identifying them all summer, not to mention the love of nature it can inspire in them.
