Introduction

From rich farmland to grand mountains and seascapes, America has a very diverse and dynamic landscape.  This diversity of landform, along with the individual use and needs of each location, sets up the framework for landscape design.  Landscape design is a combination of art and science.  A landscape designer's job is to create an environment that is pleasing to the client while working with different environmental influences.

In the Landscape Design PAC, students utilize traditional as well as computerized drawing methods to explore the basics of landscape design.  They begin by analyzing a sample landscape in order to complete a computerized landscape drawing.  Students plant seeds and properly treat the soil, so that the seeds bloom into beautiful flowers.  Further study of types of flowers and their blooming tendencies allows students to determine appropriate flower choices for different regions.

Hands-on activities involving various landscaping tools enable students to obtain experience in drawing, soil testing, measuring, and installing basic landscapes.  This PAC is a great enhancement to any agricultural program and provides a practical way for students to research careers in landscaping.
