Free ‘Living Landscapes’ workshop presented by the Mission Resource Conservation District

FALLBROOK – Mission Resource Conservation District invites the community to attend a free workshop. “Living Landscapes” will be held at the Fallbrook Public Utility District boardroom, 990 East Mission Road, from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 14.

Diane and Miranda Kennedy, permaculturalists and owners of Finch Frolic Garden, will discuss creating a “living landscape” at home. Low water-use landscapes can be vibrant and colorful, all while saving time, money and resources. Workshop topics include creating plant guilds, rainwater harvesting, companion planting and low water-use landscape plants that can be used to create a thriving, balanced landscape which requires little to no outside resources.

A free raffle will be held, and the lucky winners will take home useful gardening supplies. Snacks and refreshments will be provided.

To RSVP for this free workshop or for questions, contact Karla Standridge at (760) 728-1332 or [email protected].

An optional tour of Finch Frolic Gardens, located in Fallbrook, will be held at 1 p.m., following the workshop. Interested parties are responsible for their own transportation to and from the garden. The cost for the two-hour garden tour is $15 per person and is limited to 15 people. Interested attendees should RSVP for the tour when signing up for the free workshop.
