How to Start a Community or School Garden Series
Class 2: Design

This class is open to those who have attended Class 1: Getting Started. Begin by reviewing homework assignment from Class 1. Learn the criteria needed to choose a site and design considerations. Place measurements on paper to design a small garden as a preparatory exercise for you to complete your own design. Review native and well adapted plants that you can use for ponds, habitat or butterfly gardens in the Houston area. 

Gary Edmondson is the Director of Education at Urban Harvest. Mark Bowen is a horticulturist at Urban Harvest, a professional landscape designer and experienced at helping to start many school and community gardens.
