In this six-week installment of “Gardens of the World” we will travel to some of my favorite gardens in France, Italy, Germany, and Spain. Come visit Claude Monet’s garden in Giverny France, beautiful island villa gardens of Northern Italy, some of the most stunning gardens along the Mediterranean, and so much more. As we tour these gardens, I’ll identify gardening lessons we can learn and apply in our own gardens!
This beginner class is for people with a Canon digital camera who are interested in learning how to successfully use their camera beyond automatic/program modes.

This beginner class is for people with a Nikon digital camera who are interested in learning how to successfully use their camera beyond automatic/program modes. The class concentrates on the five essential camera settings that have the most impact on the look of a photograph: focal length, aperture, shutter speed, ISO and white balance. We also discuss how to interpret the image histogram, a camera feedback mechanism, and use that information to adjust and optimize image exposure for the next shot.

An eight-week class that helps the home gardener understand how plants are organized, classified, and named. All too often we don’t know much about the plants we select for our home gardens. When we understand plant taxonomy and nomenclature, we are more equipped to select and care for all the plants we grow in our gardens. Did you know that most plants have two to three different kinds of names? That can lead to tremendous uncertainty and confusion for the home gardener. In this class, we will learn and use botanical knowledge about plant classification and naming to improve our gardening activities!
