Community Design Forums are meetings where folks come together to create action plans for moving forward with changes that positively effect their community¹s environment. By sharing needs,
knowledge, and ideas communities get to know the power within their ranks and discover ways to help grow their green ideas. Facilitated by Giving Tree Gardens owner, Russ Henry, these forums bring together his skills as a professional Earth-Friendly Landscaper, and a volunteer Restorative Justice Facilitator. Russ sits down with consultation attendees and asks them to share their concerns, ideas, efforts, and knowledge with each other so that communities can not only draw from his experience in the garden and landscape, but more importantly, attendees learn about each other¹s skills and abilities.
