Throughout the six-part, bi-monthly workshop, local experts will teach participants how to maintain a healthy yard on a budget, with discussions on composting, natural landscaping, proper irrigation and more. Attendees will have a chance to ask questions and learn ways to mitigate challenges and address routine maintenance.
