Localscapes Landscape Design Workshop
Our professional design team guides you through designing your own landscape using the Localscapes method
You've taken the Localscapes courses, like the results you've seen other homeowners achieve and you're ready to design your own yard. This course will walk you through the design process from drawing creation to final plant selection. Any homeowner can learn to create a great yard by using the Localscapes framework.
The content for this course assumes you've already taken the Introduction to Localscapes and Localscapes University courses. If you have skipped the previous methodology classes, you may find it more challenging to design your own Localscape and may struggle to correctly implement and maintain it over time. We recommend taking the courses in order.
