Conservation Landscaping
Tour and Training

For landscape architects, landscape designers, contractors, land planners and other professionals in the landscape design and installation field

This Tour and Training is sponsored by the Northern Virginia Soil and Water Conservation District and the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, both CCLC member organizations.

We will visit several sites in Fairfax and Prince William Counties that illustrate the Eight Essential Elements of Conservation Landscaping, which include environmentally sensitive design, low-impact development, use of non-invasive native plants, and good wildlife habitat.

Tour will include residential and commercial sites; Wetland Studies & Solutions and Daniel’s Run Elementary are just two
examples being showcased. Each site features a special speaker with technical expertise to provide an overview and answer questions. Other Sites TBA.
