COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

I am so happy you are here!

To maintain a safe and collaborative experience where everyone can flourish, we ask that you abide by our community standards. These guidelines are thoughtfully designed to reflect the needs of our growing community, so they will continue to evolve as you do.

 

Feel free to jump in to answer questions and provide constructive feedback. We all approach landscape design differently and it's our combined experiences that will make this journey a success. I've built this community to support and educate. I want to make sure it’s a safe space and remains a high-quality resource at all times.


BUILD AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS

With a positive attitude, a generous spirit, and a bit of curiosity, you can use this space to build genuine relationships with fellow designers around the world.

This is a community and not a marketplace. There will be no selling, affiliate links, lead capture, promotions, or any form of content marketing.

Please demonstrate group etiquette and don’t direct message members without prior consent (group admins may occasionally DM directly).


PROMOTE CONSTRUCTIVE GROUP CULTURE

Our community would not exist without the thoughtful contributions of our members. It is up to all of us to maintain a positive environment by practicing good citizenship.

Here are some simple ways you can help:

  • Report any content that does not meet these standards. 

  • Search the group before posting a question and see if it’s already been answered.

  • In order to keep our group focused we ask that posts stay focused on garden design and topics that would inspire it. 


GIVE AS MUCH AS YOU TAKE

Please help continue this tradition of enthusiastic peer-to-peer support, and offer a helping hand when you can. This can be as simple as giving a few words of encouragement. Please keep posts and comments on-topic, intentional, and supportive.
