What people have said about past workshops:
“People are still talking about the workshop - how much they learned and how wonderful it was. There was a real hunger there I thought. Many people have commented that it was “fantastic”, “amazing”, & that they learned “tons”. Lots of people commented also on your breadth of knowledge, gentleness, & love of trees” Jill Weiss (after pruning workshop to gardeners of Cottonwood and Strathcona Community Gardens).
