SUMMARY:Designing Climate Adapted Gardens: A Designer Forum with Naomi Goodman\, Jonathan Hallet\, and Jason Jorgensen
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nDesigning Climate Adapted Gardens: A Designer Forum\nwith Naomi Goodman\, Jonathan Hallet\, and Jason Jorgensen\n \nPlease join Naomi Goodman\, Jonathan Hallet and Jason Jorgensen for an informative design forum as they discuss changing climate methodologies for creating beautiful\, healthy and resilient landscapes. Bring your tough design questions for the moderated Q & A session at the end of the three speakers’ talks. This is an online event\, a recording will be provided and will expire 3 weeks after the event date. \n  \nNaomi Goodman: When making gardens\, how can we put wildlife front and center\, AND meet the aesthetic and functional needs of a garden’s human inhabitants? What materials are available locally that have fewer negative externalities than others? How can we creatively reduce as much waste as possible when making new spaces? These are the thoughts that percolate from today’s garden makers globally who inspire Naomi. She will share examples of her work and others who she is continually energized by in this world of garden making. \n  \n \n  \nJonathan Hallet: I watched my parents experience their yard as a burden. It looked like an overwhelming and never ending chore – and the lemon didn’t seem worth the squeeze. And as a good millennial\, I don’t like to do fussy gardening\, but I do love nature and gardens. And it turns out that gardens can be a lot less work than we tend to make them. I will share from both design/planning perspectives and hands-on technique\, how to do low-input garden maintenance (both material-wise and labor-wise). \n  \n \n  \nJason Jorgensen: Understanding climate change in PNW gardens: this talk will discuss what is climate change\, how it affects urban and suburban PNW gardens\, learning new plant palettes\, and updated horticultural techniques. \n  \n \n  \nSpeaker Bios: \nNaomi Goodman \nNaomi Goodman is the Seattle based owner of Firecracker\, a landscape design firm that creates gardens for the urban habitat. Firecracker’s work stems from the ethos that a garden is to be enjoyed and used by people and its wildlife inhabitants. Naomi likes to experiment in garden making\, to see how far outside the lines she can get clients to color. \nJonathan Hallet \nThrough my practice Supernature\, I design ecologically-harmonious and playful gardens. My focus is to create outdoor spaces that feel wild\, wear neglect well\, and bring birds and insects in. Beauty and vanity is great too\, but let it be fun and easy. I studied landscape architecture at UC Berkeley and work in residential and public garden design on the west coast. \nJason Jorgensen \nJason Jorgensen obtained his formal degrees in Landscape Design and Ornamental Horticulture from the School of Horticulture at Edmonds College\, Lynnwood\, WA. Jason is currently a Qualified Professional Member of the Association of Professional Landscape Designers Washington Chapter and a Certified Professional Horticulturist from the Washington State Nursery and Landscape Association. Jason is currently a Board of Director for the Northwest Horticultural Society based in Seattle\, WA\, Board of Director for the Association of Professional Landscape Designers Washington Chapter\, and Perennials and Grasses Plant Selection Committee Member for the Great Plant Picks Program based in Seattle\, WA. Jason is passionate about changing the paradigm on creating beautiful\, sustainable\, and meaningful gardens and garden design. \n

SUMMARY:Plant to Market - Ensuring Healthy Plants in the Landscape from the Beginning to Sale with Zack Zobrist and Michelle Rau - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:Click Register to Join the Waitlist\n\n\nClass Description:\nWe all have the sheer sense of joy when we walk into our favorite nursery to just ‘sneak a peek’ at what plants are trending each season\, and we all walk out with more plants than we have room for. Often\, we don’t think about what it took to make that plant retail nursery ready and look more beautiful than we could imagine. \nIn this class\, we will visit Puget Sound Plants\, a wholesale nursery in Snohomish\, WA\, to gain an understanding of how much work goes into supplying our community with high quality plants. We will discuss what it takes to grow plants from seeds\, cuttings\, and tissue culture and how long it takes to get your plants ready for market. While stunning plants and happy customers are the end goal\, the work that is required to make sure pests are managed sustainably\, fertilizers are used properly\, water is balanced\, and the elements are controlled as much as possible\, is never ending. \nPuget Sound Plants is a family-owned wholesale nursery that sells plants to landscape professionals throughout Washington State. They focus primarily on growing trees\, shrubs\, and perennials. Over the last decade Puget Sound Plants has expanded to include five locations. They have three production sites around the state\, totaling over 400 acres that provide everything from container plants to in-ground grown material. \nAttendees will have the opportunity to purchase plants from a selection of shrubs & perennials\, preselected for our group.  Credit card preferred\, cash accepted\, no checks. \n\nInstructor(s) Bio:\nZack Zobrist is currently a Senior Manager and the Production Manager at Puget Sound Plants. With 8 years of professional industry experience in nursery production\, Zack has managed to introduce various sustainable practices to increase plant health success and reduce the use of chemicals and fertilizers in the nursery. Zack holds a Bachelor of Science in integrated plant sciences with a focus on landscape nursery and greenhouse management from Washington State University. Zack was a proud member of FFA in high school and placed at nationals in floriculture in Indianapolis. \nMichelle Rau is a horticultural educator\, plant nerd and all-around hoot.
