SUMMARY:Backyard Buffer Design Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Join the Upper and Middle James Riparian Consortium for a hands-on Backyard Buffer Design Workshop from 10am to 3pm on October 6th (Charlottesville) or October 20th (Chesterfield). Riparian landowners\, landscape designers\, and anyone interested in backyard buffer restoration is invited to join. \nThis free workshop will provide practical experience with conducting a site assessment and designing a backyard buffer\, with special attention to the different design considerations of small residential sites and how the Virginia Conservation Assistance Program (VCAP) may be an avenue for funding. Optional pre-workshop session on desktop site assessment starting at 9am. Learn more and register! \n\n4 CBLP CEUS available

SUMMARY:ELA Advanced Design Workshop with Claudia West
DESCRIPTION:There is an urgent need for ecologically rich\, inspiring plantings in the places where we live\, work\, and play. \nIn this workshop\, Claudia introduces her firm’s innovative approach—combining ecological models\, computer simulations\, and restoration strategies to design resilient\, low-maintenance plant systems. These systems address real-world challenges such as tight budgets\, tough site conditions\, and limited horticultural expertise. Claudia will explore the transformative potential of more autonomous planting strategies to combat habitat loss and species decline in an urbanizing\, warming world. Through compelling case studies\, she will demonstrate how well-designed plant systems can support biodiversity while enriching the human experience. Participants will engage in hands-on design exercises and group discussions to apply these ideas in practice. This one-day workshop is specifically designed for landscape designers and architects. \nLearning objectives \n\nUnderstand how ecological models and restoration principles can inform the design of resilient\, low-maintenance planting systems.\nIdentify strategies to overcome common barriers in planting design and management\, including limited budgets\, harsh conditions\, and maintenance constraints.\nExplore the role of more autonomous planting systems in addressing habitat loss and supporting biodiversity in urban environments.\nDiscover methods for making resilient plant systems both visually compelling and emotionally evocative.\nApply key concepts through hands-on design exercises that translate theory into practice for real-world landscape challenges.”\n\nCEU INFORMATION \nThis daylong workshop has been approved for the following CEU’s. Additional CEU’s are being sought and will be posted here as they are approved. \n\nAssociation of Professional Landscape Designers (APLD 4.25)\nChesapeake Bay Landscape Professionals (CBLP 6.0)\nLandscape Architecture Continuing Education System (6.0 credits)

SUMMARY:CBLP Level 2
DESCRIPTION:Advance your expertise in green infrastructure stormwater management with CBLP Level 2\, an intensive training program designed for experienced landscape professionals. Participants will build advanced skills in stormwater BMP design and/or installation through real-world case studies\, expert instruction\, personalized feedback\, and peer collaboration. Choose to pursue a Design (CBLP-D)\, Installation (CBLP-I)\, or dual credential. \nThis fully in-person training will be held November 19–21 in Woodbridge\, VA. Participants must have completed the CBLP Level 1 exam (or plan to complete it before Level 2) and have experience designing or installing stormwater BMPs. The program includes preparatory assignments\, a project presentation\, a final project\, and an open-book exam. Registration is now open.
