Living Earth Landscapes invites the public to a free seminar on how to correctly design and build a pond for your landscape at its nursery and water garden center located at 5307 Boyd Road (next to Three G’s Hay and Grain) in Arcata. Owner and licensed contractor Keith Hamm covers the basic concepts of a well-built pond. From skimmers to bog filters to the nutrient cycle, learn how to work with nature and keep a pond looking and functioning its best. Perfect for those who are thinking of building a pond as well as those who are having persistent problems with an older pond. Call 822-POND (7663) or visit www.822POND.com for more information.
