The trickle of water from a pond or fountain adds layers of texture, sound and beauty to indoor and outdoor landscapes.
Hone your skills in building and selling water features at the two-day Pond College hosted by Aquascape Designs, July 15 and 16 in St. Charles, Ill.
Seminar leaders include Aquascape professionals, as well as professionals and consultants in water gardening, business and marketing from across the country.
“This is a great chance to work on your business, not in your business,” says Greg Wittstock, founder and CEO of Aquascape Designs/NurseryPro. “It’s about learning how to make the most out of your water garden business.”
More than 50 seminars cover topics like innovative techniques with streams and waterfalls, understanding koi health, retailing plants for profit and more.
Also, a mini trade show spotlights the latest water feature products.
Other Pond College events include a waterfall-building contest and a bus tour of the 2004 Chicago Parade of Ponds, a tour of more than 200 ponds.
Various event packages are available. For more information or to register, visit www.aquascapedesigns.com or contact 866/877-6637.
