SUSTAINABLE LANDSCAPES

 

 

Sustainable Landscape Design was started in 1994 by Sherri Osaka. With degrees in landscape architecture and engineering, she is uniquely suited to merge ecological systems with design elements in order to produce a long-lasting and sustainable outcome that is a delight for years to come

 

Ms. Osaka is a life-long organic gardener and a member of the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA); the Sierra Club; the California Native Plant Society; and Architects, Designers, and Planners for Social Responsibility (ADPSR).

 
She will talk on a wide range of sustainable landscape techniques, including drip and gray-water irrigation, California native plants, recycling existing resources, conserving water, low-maintenance lawns, and non-toxic materials.
