Landscaping Course Offered at Randolph Community College Archdale Center

Randolph Community College’s Archdale Center has scheduled a Residential & Commercial Landscaping course to start in September.
           
This practical course was created for homeowners looking to spruce up their own yards and entrepreneurs looking to start a landscaping and lawn care business.
          
It covers the basic principles of landscape design and will include drawing plans; calculating area, volume and plant quantities needed for landscape projects; and estimating costs. A Saturday hands-on project will be held at the conclusion of the course, giving participants the opportunity to apply knowledge gained in the classroom out in the field.
          
The course will be taught by Steve Cline, owner of Cline’s Greenhouse, Nursing & Landscaping. Cline holds a master’s degree in agricultural education from North Carolina State University.
          
This course will meet from 6-9 p.m., Tuesdays, Sept. 18 through Oct. 30. The Saturday session will be held from 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m. on Nov. 2. The registration fee is $66.25, which includes insurance.
