Got a green thumb? Then you\u2019re sure to love one upcoming event here in the City of Winter Park.<\/p>\n
The Winter Park Neighborhood\u00a0 Council is set to once again host the lecture series \u2018Green Gardening,\u2019 in picturesque Winter Park. This year\u2019s series features classes and lectures with the presence of renowned landscape artists and architects as well as talks from celebrated gardening specialists and masters of the hobby. Green Gardening takes place throughout the months of May, July, and October.<\/p>\n
The city\u2019s Environmental Review Board is working together with the Neighborhood Council to encourage the community to participate in the series of lectures so they can know more about the ins and outs of gardening and landscaping. This is done in an effort to have the most number of certified Florida-Friendly Yards in the state.<\/p>\n
The Florida Yards & Neighborhoods program is a campaign that showcases homes that boast of eco-friendly gardening and landscaping techniques. These yards are thus called Florida-Friendly Yards, and are recognized for their minimized use of potable water for irrigation, which reduces the risk of harming the environment through the use of excess pesticides and fertilizers.<\/p>\n
A yard doesn\\’t need to follow a template to be recognized. It\u2019s how a homeowner keeps his garden looking good and environmentally friendly that counts the most.<\/p>\n
