Garden Site Assessment Booklet
This site assessment booklet, written by former CCE staff Charlie Mazza, has 12 different activities for assessing the physical characteristics of your garden site: sun/shade, soil, wind, slope, existing plants, wildlife interference, etc.
These assessment exercises are useful for learning more about an existing or proposed garden site, and they are fun and interesting to conduct with youth and/or adult participants at your garden.
These are the same assessment exercises used by students in the Organic Gardening and Introduction to Garden Design courses. You can use them for your home garden as well.
