Landscape Design Program featured at Museum

 

The Southside Master Gardener Association will hold a landscape design program at the South Boston Halifax County Museum on Friday, October 23 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.  The program is free and open to the public.  Reservations are requested by calling 434-476-2147, option 0 or emailing ask@ssmga.org.

          Randi Clifford, a South Central Master Gardener, will present Landscape Design Basics.  Randi will talk about the basics of creating a landscape or garden that works for you. Randi will share practical tips and advice, provide do’s and don’ts, and will show before-and-after photos. Participants will get a list of her “go-to” hardy plants, including many native options. A good design will help minimize weeds and assure the plants work together to provide color all season long.

          This program will be held at the South Boston Halifax County Museum located at 1540 Wilborn Avenue, South Boston starting at 11 a.m. The program is free and open to the public.  Reservations are requested and can be made by calling the Halifax Extension Office at 434-476-2147, option 0 or emailing ask@ssmga.org.  Hope to see you there!
