Backyard Abundance Event: Creating Landscapes for Children, Iowa City, IA

Sunday, July 18, 2010
Tony Malkusak, landscape architect and playground designer, has been trained in Nature Explore. Backyard Abundance used Nature Explore principles and ideas when designing the Maharishi school playground in Fairfield, the Discovery Garden at the Iowa City Rec Center, and the 4Cs Home Ties playground at Iowa City 1st Mennonite Church. Tony has used them to create a great outdoor play space in his yard for his own children and neighborhood children. His yard will be featured at a Backyard Abundance yard tour. Prior to the yard tour he will give an educational presentation about how he developed this space and how much his children have benefitted.
