Design Your Future: A Crash Course in Garden Design

  • Catskills Visitor Center 5096 New York 28 Mount Tremper, NY, 12457 United States (map)

Join Jax Hughes from Happy Bear Landscapes for an inspiring workshop at the Catskills Visitor Center that will transform the way you think about your outdoor spaces.

This event is for anyone with a passion for plants and/or an interest in designing beautiful outdoor spaces! Whether you're a beginner gardener or a master gardener, February is a perfect time to begin collecting inspiration for the upcoming growing season.

The program will include a talk by Jax Hughes - the founder of Happy Bear Landscapes - followed by a group conversation about the fundamentals of ecological gardening and design. Jax will be discussing a number of topics (biodiversity, native vs. nonnative plants, four-season gardening) through the lens of the Catskill Visitor Center Pollinator Garden which he designed and installed this past Fall. 

This event is FREE with a suggested donation of $10.00. Registration is required.

This program was created in partnership with Catskill Mountain Roots. Catskill Mountain Roots, organized by former Daily Freeman photographer Tania Barricklo, works to create community through gatherings, events, education and exploration of nature in the Catskill Mountains.
