Want to create a lush, living landscape that captures water, stores carbon, and supports local ecology? Join Poly/Ana and Studio Petrichor for a hands-on workshop that brings regenerative design to life.
Led by regenerative garden designers Leigh Adams and Shawn Maestretti, this workshop offers practical tools, fresh inspiration, and meaningful connection—all in one nourishing morning.
🛠 What You’ll Learn

Store carbon by using organic materials on-site
Capture rainwater and reduce runoff
