Building a Garden Ecology with California Natives
4.0 units This service learning course helps gardeners and landscape architec‑ ture students of all levels understand the beauty and value of using our California natives in a garden setting. There are many myths about California natives: they are difficult and need lots of attention and maintenance. Is this true? No! We explore the ecological and logistical values of bringing local native plants and other ecosystem services back into urban landscapes. We learn, by doing, how to design and install a California native garden, focusing on the concepts of Sur‑ frider’s Ocean Friendly Garden Program: conservation, permeability, and retention. In collaboration with SELVA International and the Sur‑ frider Foundation. Reg# 389565 Fee: $650 No refund after 17 Jan.
