Students spend two mornings a week gaining hands-on experience while learning how the experts care for and maintain new and existing landscapes, gardens, and lawns at the Long Hill Reservation, a beautiful country garden estate in Beverly. Designed for homeowners, gardeners, landscape workers, and individuals who wish to broaden their horticultural knowledge.
This unique program insures that the student experiences the best that the New England growing seasons have to offer.
To earn a Landscape and Garden Maintenance Certificate, you must also complete 120 hours of field experience. Please provide your Corporate and Community Education programmer with documentation in the form of a letter from one or more supervisors or clients stating the number of hours of service. This experience can be volunteer or paid. Once you have successfully completed the necessary courses, and your field experience, your certificate will be awarded by the Trustees of Reservations.
