Description: Instructor: Jay Bearfield, C.P.P.C., I.P.P.C.A., Liquid Landscape Designs

This comprehensive course takes an in-depth look at the various garden pools, streams, fountains, ponds and their construction and uses in the modern landscape. The course is tailored for anyone, novice to professional, who desires a more complete knowledge and understanding of water features: their design, construction, components and care. Some of the subjects covered will include site selection, type of features, filtration types, materials, fish and plants with a focus on current trends within the industry.
Intended to provide solid industry information versus the typical manufacturer product sales pitches, students upon completion will be able to confidently select the proper equipment necessary to design, create and maintain any of the varying styles of water features in current production today. This classroom style course will be taught through the aid of visual presentations and handouts, with equipment samples provided for demonstration. In addition, students attending this course will be invited to a private tour in June of one of the Northeast's top aquatic growers & suppliers.
