SUMMARY:AHS Live: Behind-the-Scenes Tour: Headwaters at the Comal
DESCRIPTION:The Headwaters at the Comal sits at a remarkable moment in its transformation\, and visitors on this tour will experience all three chapters of its story firsthand. The journey begins in the recently completed past: a former industrial hardscape now reimagined as a Low Impact Development parking lot and entrance garden\, where native plants\, rain gardens\, and swales intercept and treat stormwater before it ever reaches the Comal River watershed. The tour then moves into the living present. The approximately quarter mile trail walk winds through established landscape born from a major 2016-2017 restoration that diverted over 12\,000 pounds of pollutants from the Comal’s headwater spring run and has since matured into a thriving corridor of biodiversity offering rare refuge for native species in a region where natural habitat is rapidly disappearing. Finally\, the group will witness the future taking shape in real time: the ongoing removal of remaining asphalt and impervious cover\, and the conversion of existing structures into interpretive nature centers for the community. This is restoration not as a finished product\, but as a living process and this tour offers a front-row seat. \n$50 AHS members/$60 non-members\nAll tours are listed in location’s timezone\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:AHS LIVE: The African Ancestors Garden
DESCRIPTION:Paul Peters\, principal at Hood Design Studio\, will share about the studio’s landscape design process for the African Ancestors Garden\, part of the International African American Museum in Charleston\, South Carolina. The garden draws inspiration from both the Lowcountry landscape and the broader African diaspora to create a tranquil environment for reflection\, learning\, and remembrance. Organized as a series of sub-gardens\, the design celebrates the artistry\, craftsmanship\, and labor of African Americans through botanical and material narratives. The African Origins Garden highlights the botanical diaspora by featuring plants commonly found throughout Southern landscapes that trace their origins to regions across Africa\, symbolizing how plant migration parallels the historical displacement and movement of people. Complementing this\, the Lowcountry Garden is rooted in the ecology of local marshlands\, incorporating native reeds\, a circular arrangement of concrete benches inspired by the contours of coastal mudflats\, and a gentle ground depression that gathers site runoff. Together\, these spaces form a contemplative memorial landscape that honors ancestral memory and offers visitors a profound connection to the enduring heritage of the African diaspora. \nHood Design Studio is a landscape architecture and social art practice based in Oakland\, California and founded by visionary landscape architect\, Walter Hood. Paul Peters\, a Principal at Hood Design Studio\, is renowned for spotlighting the intricate ties between nature and culture in his landscape designs. He transforms expansive sites into intimate spaces\, designing with sensitivity to personal memories and experiences. He is deeply invested in the conceptual phase\, seamlessly weaving broad perspectives\, conceptual thinking\, and research throughout his projects\, ultimately influencing societal perspectives. Earning his master’s in landscape architecture from the University of British Columbia\, Paul managed his own design-build firm in Vancouver for seven years. Since joining Hood Design Studio in 2016\, he’s pioneered several groundbreaking projects. Notably\, he’s contributed to the International African American Museum in Charleston\, SC\, the historic Oakland Museum of California’s renovation\, and Nvidia’s state-of-the-art campus in Silicon Valley. \nVirtual\n$15 AHS members/$20 non-members\nAll virtual programs are in ET\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:AHS LIVE: Soils and Plant Nutrition
DESCRIPTION:A beautiful and sustainable garden starts with understanding your garden conditions\, enabling you to select plants that will thrive. One crucial part of that knowledge is your garden soil. We will simplify the complex topic of garden soil into five key areas to help you understand what you need to know. This program will address soil and water\, soil texture and structure\, soil chemistry\, nutrient delivery\, and the soil ecosystem. \nGretchen Renshaw is a horticulturist and teacher. She is a founder and volunteer director at the Manhattan Beach Botanical Garden in California. This demonstration garden features California native plants and sustainable gardening practices. She is a former horticulture instructor at UCLA Extension\, where she taught for over 25 years. One of her courses was a four-unit class on Soils and Plant Nutrition\, for which she wrote and published Underground: A Gardener’s Guide to Soil and Plant Nutrition. Renshaw also worked as a science teacher at an elementary school\, engaging students in hands-on science activities from kindergarten to fifth grade. She has a bachelor’s degree in Horticulture from Cal Poly\, San Luis Obispo. \nVirtual\n$15 AHS members/$20 non-members\nAll virtual programs are in ET\nRegister Here
