SUMMARY:Garden University: Irrigation Control Systems Professional Development
DESCRIPTION:Considering Updating or Installing Central Irrigation Control? \nIn a position of approving funding? Especially for something for the most part\, unseen\, but the purpose of which is highly regarded aesthetically? \n“The Grass is Green where you Water It.” Simple right? But spending tens of thousands\, upwards of hundreds of thousands\, on Irrigation Control Systems should not go forward without understanding! \nWhat are you approving?\nHave you asked the right questions?\nAre you thinking long-term? \nHave you considered the awareness of the end users’ actual needs and comprehension of the systems? \nSo\, how are you going to determine what level of Irrigation Control is suitable\, necessary\, affordable\, and maintainable? \n  \n3 sessions / 3 months will afford you the answers\, or at least\, the process to derive at a defendable decision. \nSession 1: October 27th-28th (Tue/Wed) \nOverview of the World of Irrigation\, spotlighting the complexities of Irrigation Control Systems. \nSession 2: November 17th-18th (Tue/Wed) \nAssessing current status of systems and staff. \nSession 3: January 26th-27th (Tue/Wed) \nBuilding out the thought process systematically with a model site. \n  \n*Lunch provided \n  \nPurchase tickets HERE. \n— \nGordon Kunkle is currently employed with SiteOne Landscape Supply as the Western States/Canada Regional Trainer for irrigation\, and a Project Manager in Project Services team. Gordon started out on a career path pursuing landscape architecture\, however an opportunity to join an irrigation consulting firm in the San Francisco Bay Area caused a redirection of focus. He later obtained a C-27 Landscape Contractor license in California\, and holds certifications in Design\, Auditing\, Contractor and Water Management with the Irrigation Association. \nThese certifications led to opportunities to provide input and manage significant corporate facilities\, public areas\, and private developments in multiple states through central irrigation control platforms. After spending several years as a sales manager for Hunter within the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada regions\, he took a position as the inaugural Water Manager for the City of Portland Parks. Now\, along with his duties at SiteOne\, Gordon is also a part-time faculty member conducting irrigation courses at Clackamas Community College located in Oregon City\, Oregon.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for the first of our Jr. Gardener’s Club fall programming! \n  \nChildren will begin with playful yoga\, followed by a short nature treasure hunt to discover fallen leaves\, grasses\, seed pods and other natural treasures. They’ll then paint and create a keepsake frame or nature collage using the items they’ve collected. \n  \nThe purchase of a ticket includes Garden Admission for one child and one caregiver so you and your little one can wander the Oregon Garden\, looking for frogs in our A-Mazing Water Garden or listen to the busy bees in our Apiary after the workshop is done! \nLocation: Children’s Garden \nTime: 10:00-12:00pm \nAge range: 3-12 \n**Siblings receive a discount!** \n  \nPurchase tickets HERE. \n— \nAbout the Instructors \nHi\, I’m Tricia Lewis\, founder of Mat & Chat Yoga. I’m a certified RYT 200 Yoga Instructor\, Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Facilitator\, and Kids Yoga Instructor through Yoga Playgrounds. \nI believe movement\, mindfulness\, and creativity are powerful ways to help us feel more connected — to ourselves\, to one another\, and to the world around us. \nThrough Mat & Chat Yoga\, I create welcoming spaces for children\, families\, and adults to pause\, breathe\, move\, and connect. My Mat & Chat Kids classes blend mindful movement\, breathwork\, storytelling\, and games to support confidence\, curiosity\, and emotional awareness. \nMy goal is to help people of all ages discover joy\, creativity\, and a deeper sense of trust and connection within themselves. \nI’m excited to partner with Desiree and Root & Bloom at the beautiful Oregon Garden to offer this Movement + Nature-Inspired Art experience — inviting children and families to explore\, create\, and connect with the natural world through mindful movement and creativity. \n  \nHi\, I’m Desiree\, founder of Root & Bloom. \nLife gets busy. We spend so much time taking care of responsibilities\, checking off to-do lists and moving from one thing to the next that it’s easy to forget to make time for ourselves. I wanted to create a reason to slow down. \nRoot & Bloom’s Creative Wellness Workshops bring people together to paint\, create\, garden\, explore nature and enjoy hands-on experiences that spark creativity\, conversation and connection. Every workshop is a little different\, but the goal is always the same: to spend a couple of hours making something\, meeting new people and leaving a little more refreshed than when you arrived. \nBeyond workshops\, I also work one-on-one with clients through gardening\, home organization and practical wellness support ~ helping people create spaces\, routines and everyday habits that feel healthier\, more manageable and more enjoyable. \nI hope you’ll join me at an upcoming workshop. I’d love to create something with you.

SUMMARY:Professional Development Workshop: Pruning Trees for Arborists
DESCRIPTION:Masa Mizuno came to the United States from Osaka and was the landscape director of the Portland Japanese Garden. Masa has worked as a landscape contractor in the Portland area since 1982. His work focuses on designing and maintaining residential gardens that incorporate Japanese garden ideas into the naturalistic style typical of gardens in the Pacific Northwest. In his practice and teaching\, he focuses on aspects of gardening such as maintaining the proper ratio of open space to allow plants to assume balanced proportions in relation to the other landscaping elements of rocks\, hardscaping\, herbaceous plants\, and ground cover. Inspired by his knowledge of authentic gardens in Japan\, Mizuno believes that garden plants should be pruned in a way that enables each to live in a comfortable space and that the gardener should continually be paying attention to the need in the garden for removal or transplanting of plants that are no longer in the right place. He takes considerable pride in maintaining gardens that he has designed and built and in maintaining the design’s long-term integrity. \nThis workshop will be hosted at the Oregon Garden\, one of the premier botanical gardens in Oregon. The workshop will include handouts discussing some basic concepts in plant management and aesthetics with a focus on some larger trees. The target audience for this workshop is arborists and other related professions that manage larger trees in ornamental landscapes. \nThe majority of the workshop will include Masa leading collaborative pruning with class participants. Masa Mizuno will demonstrate his approach to maintaining landscape plants within their natural forms and within the scale and aesthetic goals of a garden. Concepts covered will include managing the natural progression of shrubs and trees\, maintaining plants in proportion to the garden\, use of locally native plants as well as Japanese trees and shrubs. \n__ \n  \nPlease bring your own lunch! There are snacks and refreshments available for purchase in the Visitor Center. \n__ \n  \nRick Till\, a BCMA with a focus on aesthetics and tree preservation\, will assist and provide cross references to ISA best management practices as needed. \n\nISA Board Certified Master Arborist\, PN-8358B \n\n\nISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualified \n\n\nVALID Tree Risk-Benefit Validator (www.validtreerisk.com/) \n\n\nTCIA Certified Treecare Safety Professional\, No. 04200 \n\n\nOregon LCB 100857 \n\n__ \n  \nClick HERE to Purchase Tickets \nLimited spaces available**

SUMMARY:Garden University: Wonder Walk Impressions
DESCRIPTION:Participants will begin with a guided Wonder Walk through the garden. Each person will receive a unique Wonder Card with a reflective theme to guide what they notice throughout the walk. Rather than searching for specific objects\, they’ll be encouraged to observe the garden through a different lens as they notice colors\, textures\, patterns\, light and the details that naturally draw their attention. \nAfter the walk\, we’ll gather to create an original acrylic painting inspired by what stood out to each participant. \nThis isn’t a traditional painting class. It’s a Creative Wellness Experience centered on observation\, curiosity\, creativity and personal expression. Every painting will be unique because every participant experiences the garden differently. \nNo artistic experience is necessary and all materials will be provided. \nTickets can be purchased HERE \n— \nHi\, I’m Desiree\, founder of Root & Bloom. \nLife gets busy.

SUMMARY:Illuminated Riverwood Art
DESCRIPTION:Create a one-of-a-kind illuminated riverwood art piece using natural treasures\, lights\, feathers\, charms\, dream catchers and more! \nAll ages welcome\, no previous experience necessary\, and all materials provided! \n— \nA word from the instructor:  \nHi\, I’m Desiree\, founder of Root & Bloom. \nLife gets busy. We spend so much time taking care of responsibilities\, checking off to-do lists and moving from one thing to the next that it’s easy to forget to make time for ourselves. I wanted to create a reason to slow down. \nRoot & Bloom’s Creative Wellness Workshops bring people together to paint\, create\, garden\, explore nature and enjoy hands-on experiences that spark creativity\, conversation and connection. Every workshop is a little different\, but the goal is always the same: to spend a couple of hours making something\, meeting new people and leaving a little more refreshed than when you arrived. \nBeyond workshops\, I also work one-on-one with clients through gardening\, home organization and practical wellness support ~ helping people create spaces\, routines and everyday habits that feel healthier\, more manageable and more enjoyable. \nI hope you’ll join me at an upcoming workshop. I’d love to create something with you. \n— \nCLICK HERE TO PURCHASE TICKETS
