The full text of the Society’s announcement is below:
Registration is now open for our spring Native Landscaping Certification Program (NLCP) classes! Our chapters are offering a total of 29 classes this spring, including two classes in Spanish.
NLCP classes include:
- Level 1: Introduction to Native Landscapes
- Level 2: Landscape Design with Native Plants
- Level 3: Installation and Maintenance of Native Landscapes
- Level 4: Stewardship of Native Plant Communities
- Companion Class – Native Landscapes for Birds
*Level 1 is a prerequisite for Level 2 and for Level 3. Subsequent levels may be taken in any order.
Classes are consistent across the state but focus on the characteristics and plants of the region in which they are taught. Please register for classes located in the region in which you wish to landscape whenever possible.
Classes can fill up quickly, so sign up today! Questions? Email linda.foss@npsot.org for more information.
