Got Questions?
-
You can start whenever you like as its self paced. Six Fortnightly Group Zoom Q & A are held over a 12week period. After this period, you will still have access to the group Facebook page to ask Kathleen and her team questions and receive support.
The course is self-paced; all videos are pre-recorded so you can start right now.
You will have lifetime access to the course, including any future upgrades to the course materials.
Additionally, you can watch lessons as many times as you like, whenever you like.

The course has been designed to be completed in 12weeks. There are 10 Modules and depending on the size of your garden, it is anticipated you will spend approximately 20 hours to complete all modules. The best results are achieved by keeping to this timeframe as you have the support of the Group Zoom Q & A Calls for 12weeks. However we understand that life can throw a curve ball! So everything is recorded including the past Group Zoom calls. The Face Book Group Page will also be there to ask questions after the 12week period so you can go at your own pace.

I have designed this course with very little tech and where it is used there are step by step videos to help you. However a basic understanding of computers is required.
-
My standard design fees start at over $10,000AUD so you are paying a fraction of this and you get access to me and my years of experience. I am confident that what I teach in the program will save you money and will more than cover the cost.
Also a plan is the cheapest exercise in building a garden, without it you have little control over the process. It really does save you money in the long run.
The skills you learn can be applied to future projects too, as many of us move houses and create more than one garden!
For anyone owning a rental property the fees are tax deductible.
-
That’s no problem. This is an international course with students from all around the world.
Everything I teach is applicable no matter where you are in the world.
You can select your local currency at the checkout when purchasing.

I want you to be happy with the investment you make in this course. But I want you to realise that you also have to put in the work to create a scaled garden concept plan. This won’t happen on it’s own!
But if you go through the full course, watch all the lessons, do all the activities and provide evidence of this and you still aren’t happy with what you’ve achieved then simply email me and I will happily refund your full payment within 60 days of purchase.
-
We partner with horticulturalists from around the world to help you select appropriate feature trees and shrubs/grasses. However, its still really important that you do your own research - visiting local nurseries and furthering your knowledge. This applies no matter where you live. We never stop learning.
-
As part of the course you will have access to ask questions and receive expert advice through 'Design Your Dream Garden' Facebook Group. In this group you will be able to share ideas and connect with others on a similar journey to yourself- you won't be alone.
I will also be adding fortnightly Zoom Q & A sessions which will be recorded and stored on this Facebook Group Page. So if you miss the live Zoom sessions you can just follow up here later.
You will also have access to a Library of free resources with sample plans, construction drawings and planting plans. A life time of knowledge at your finger tips.
