Landscape Design Workshops – Design your own garden
Seminar style workshops in which you work step-by-step with Robin Shafer completing your own garden design using a fun and affordable hands-on method.
Your garden design process consists of 10 hours over 4 sessions, where you will work directly on your plan, using Robin’s lifetime of experience and expertise to guide you through the decision-making processes.
The Process:
- Site Visit
Robin will visit your property before the workshop starts so that she is familiar with your site and knows in advance what you would like to achieve. - Design
In the workshop environment, using your photos and measurements, you will learn the essentials of good garden design. - Concept Sketch
Finish with a scaled concept sketch of your own garden design, which will enable you to begin the process of laying out and building your dream garden.
Having a master plan is the first step to the attainment of your fabulous garden and your participation in the process will be intensely rewarding plus very affordable.
