Greetings from the APLD® San Diego District! We are an enthusiastic and active group of designers and others in the landscape design field who love to learn and share with one another. Some of our activities during the year can include educational workshops, seminars, overnight trips to California botanical gardens and venues, and social time. We traditionally have a large display at the entryway of the San Diego Home/Garden Shows, with paid design consultations to the public.
Our Board meetings are typically the second Wednesday of the month from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., and all APLD members are welcome and encouraged to attend. We have a time of networking and food at the beginning of each Board meeting.
See a list of upcoming APLD San Diego District Programs.

Please check the Events calendar on the APLD website for upcoming events of interest to landscape designers throughout the state. We encourage members to attend our monthly board meetings, where we share a meal followed by our board meeting.
