Creating a mini meadow in your landscape? Whether you are beginning a project soon or have one in progress, find inspiration, ideas and practical information tailored to strengthen your project and learn more about the design process in this workshop on June 22, 2023 from 2 to 4 pm at URI East Farm.

Under the guidance of Graham Gardner, landscape designer and author of the recently published book Tiny + Wild: Build a Small Scale Meadow Anywhere, participants will share their projects which will serve as case studies for the group to engage in “design consultations.” Consideration will be given to designing, installing and managing the project.

Graham is a Rhode Island native, URI Landscape Architecture graduate, and a former RIWPS member. He has over 25 years of experience in landscape design and project management in public, private, and non-profit spaces. Graham’s diverse experiences in New England, plus his work in Colorado, California, and Puerto Rico, have reinforced his passion for the ecological vibrancy and diversity of communities of native plants and for advocating to bring nature’s abundance to our landscapes.
