Smart Stormwater: Practical Solutions for a Resilient Future

Presentation + Q&A: 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM

Where: Serenbe Farms

Join us at Serenbe Farms for a free workshop with Brandy Hall, Founder & CEO of Shades of Green Permaculture . This special seminar serves as a thoughtful follow-up to her book signing for The Complete Guide to Home Permaculture and offers valuable insights for residents, landowners, and sustainability enthusiasts alike.

What if your landscape could slow, sink, and store every drop of rain — while restoring soil health and supporting native ecosystems? In this inspiring talk, Brandy shares real-world, permaculture-based strategies for building resilient landscapes that treat stormwater as a resource rather than a runoff problem.

During this presentation, you’ll learn how to:

• Restore the natural water cycle through smart design

• Use earth contouring techniques like swales and rain gardens

• Select diverse, site-appropriate plant communities

• Build long-term soil fertility through water-smart systems

With nearly two decades of experience as a contractor, stone mason, educator, and nationally recognized landscape designer, Brandy brings both expertise and practicality to this timely conversation about climate resilience and regenerative design.

Perfect for homeowners, designers, and anyone interested in creating beautiful, climate-resilient landscapes.
