Word comes today from Sanne Kure-Jensen, a landscape designer and consultant in Portsmouth, of the summer landscape design courses being offered by Arnold Arboretum beginning in July. The Landscape Institute, which is appropriately located on Garden Street in Cambridge and not at Arnold Arboretum itself, offers certificate programs, and because it is only about an hour away from Providence, adventurous Rhode Islanders may want to investigate their course offerings and take some courses or earn a certificate.
Arnold Arboretum, located in Boston's Roslindale, is well worth exploring. They also have an adult education program, a "Field studies for children" program, and family activities.
This post is about Arnold Arboretum, but several Rhode Island organizations offer similar programs as well. Look through the long list of organizations in the Providential Gardener's side bar and the list of Events links for Rhode Island groups. Blithewold in Bristol, for instance, offers an extensive range of similar activities.
Thanks, Sanne, for this info! The Providential Gardener welcomes all news and updates about what's "growing on" in and near Rhode Island. Any Rhode Island groups offering similar activities ~ add my email to your distribution list!
