Are you eager to learn more about edible landscaping?

Our sister company, The Foodscaper, hosted a two-day educational summit in January 2022. The Foodscaper Summit is geared toward foodscaping professionals, but most of the content is just as relevant to foodscaping amateurs and pairs nicely with the intensive classes.

Participants of the “Foodscape Your Yard” intensive will have access to all the recorded content from The Foodscaper Summit at a discounted price of $75.

Look for a discount code via email when you register for the intensive.

A few notes:

- This intensive will require a car or carpooling with another registered participant as we will be traveling to several locations throughout South City, St. Louis.

- Please bring your own lunch for a picnic, as well as water and anything you need to stay cool and comfortable.

- Once the intensive is over, you can still receive support from our staff by asking questions on our free Foodscape Your Yard Slack channel
