TO REGISTER please send an e-transfer anywhere between $40 and $60 to: rootedbythebluffs@gmail.com. Please note that the actual cost of the workshop is $50. Paying a price below this is available for those where paying the full price would result in hardship (i.e., inability to pay bills or buy groceries). This differs from making a financial sacrifice (i.e., attending this workshop rather than buying a new sweater, or going out for dinner). Paying a price above this value, is a pay-it-forward opportunity to support your fellow community members and the work I do. We appreciate your honest consideration of where you are on the scale.
As a small business, sending an e-transfer over purchasing through the website is appreciated as it reduces my fees. The option is available to purchase through the website as well. When payment is received, you will receive a confirmation email from me, including directions.
We will be spending the full time outside. Pruning cannot take place in the rain. You will be notified via email by Tuesday March 31 9 a.m. if this workshop is being rescheduled.
Please bring clean and sharp pruning tools e.g. hand pruners, lopers, saws. This is a hands-on class.
Please note payments are non-refundable but registration is transferable to another individual. In the event of cancellation due to unknown circumstances, refunds will be issued within 30 days.
