Whether you have shady patches or garden all in shade, Helen Battersby helps you cope with the shade garden’s particular problems as well as understand its opportunities. We’ll cover garden design principles for your shade garden (they work in sunny gardens, too!). Armed with ideas for both shade-friendly plants and design strategies, you’ll learn how to persevere and discover creative ways to make a beautiful shade garden. 

Helen is a grad of the Landscape Design program at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson), and she has volunteered for 20 years as a Toronto Master Gardener. She is a past board member of GardenComm, the International Association for Garden 
Communicators. Her words and images have appeared in print and online media such as Garden Making and GardenDesign.com.

Please come and join a friendly group of amateur gardeners interested in learning more about all aspects of gardening.
