~ preservation tools: legislation, planning, easements, registration, and
funding
research techniques/sources

~ fieldwork techniques for "reading" landscapes
~ landscape archaeology

~ history of plant introduction and nomenclature
~ documentation, acquisition, and rejuvenation of historic plant materials
~ maintaining conserved landscapes
Dates: July 10 - 15, with a preparatory assignment
