Join the Licking Park District and Licking Soil and Water Conservation District for the six week Landscape for Life™ series to learn how to create healthy soils, conserve and manage water, attract beneficial insects, birds & wildlife, cultivate a safe lawn, and reduce maintenance time in your garden. The series consists of six individual classes held on Thursday evenings starting on March 19th. Each class will have “homework”, culminating in a personal property design!
