We have a new venue for the Core Concepts Workshop in Ventura on April 24, 2012:

City of Ventura Public Works Maintenance Yard

336 Sanjon Road
Ventura, CA 93001

This one-day seminar and quiz is THE PREREQUISITE FOR ALL G3 PROFESSIONAL TRAINING PROGRAMS.

Can you explain clearly exactly how much water a landscape requires? Are you able to calculate how much water your soil holds? And are you able to calculate the exact amount of water to apply and when to apply it?. What about rainwater harvesting: How much water falls on your landscape? How do you contain it cost effectively, and where do you reuse it? This Workshop will provide you with or sharpen these critical skills for landscape, water efficiency, and watershed professionals.

The morning will be spent in the classroom, and the afternoon will be in-field conducting a Site Evaluation at a local garden. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks are included. Bring a hat, suscreen, closed-toe shoes, and a water bottle for field work.
