This year’s theme, Community in Bloom, honors connection, creativity, and the spirit of Kaysville as we commemorate the 250th anniversary of American independence.

This three-part workshop series will guide you through planning and redesigning a space in your yard with functionality and water savings in mind. Each session builds on the last, giving you time to think through ideas, apply what you’ve learned, and come back ready for the next step.
Over the course of three Friday evenings (April 10, 17 & 24), you’ll learn how to evaluate an existing space, develop a practical design, and make informed choices about layout and plants that support how you use your yard while reducing water use. This series is designed to help you move from ideas on paper to a realistic plan you can implement at home.
