WHAT TO EXPECT

Small by design

Each session is deliberately capped at eight people. The conversation stays close and the learning stays practical.

Studio setting

Held at our Hawthorn studio, surrounded by the plants, objects and reference material we use in our own design work.

Printed take-homes

Every workshop includes printed notes, worksheets or plant lists to carry the thinking forward.

Led by practitioners

Not instructors. The people who lead these sessions design ecological gardens for a living.
