LMCCE.orgBird Song: Lecture and Walk
NEW!
Our first session in the classroom will allow us to listen to
recorded birdsongs of local birds and better understand why birds
sing and what various songs mean. During the second class, we’ll
walk through Larchmont Reservoir to identify local birds and hear
their songs “live.” Please bring binoculars if you have them.

Code 202Conquer the Clutter
NEW!
We live in a consumer-driven society that encourages over-
consumption; obtaining things is as easy as “Click Here” and
delivered to our door the next day. As a result, homes become
easily over-run with items, many of which are never used. The
sense of serenity we want to feel in our homes is hijacked by all
the stuff around us! This class will cover strategies and solutions
for conquering physical clutter in the home. You will leave the
class armed with the know-how and resources for winning the
battle on clutter.

Let’s Get Growing: Starting a Garden Using Seeds
NEW!
Though seed catalogs are enticing, many gardeners fear that
starting seeds indoors will be too complicated, difficult, or
messy. But a seed exists to sprout, and given the right condi-
tions, it will do so with great determination. The best plants
to start from seed indoors are those that tolerate having their
roots disturbed and those that need a long growing season.
In this hands-on class, you’ll start a variety of seeds in small
containers, learn how to nurture them, and take them home for
transplanting when the weather gets warm.

Teach Your Dog Good Manners
NEW!
Teach your pet to be a “good dog:” one who doesn’t chew things,
steal things, jump on people, destroy your furniture, and bark
all day. Despite their desire to please you, that “good” behavior
doesn’t come naturally to dogs. In this discussion and lecture
class, you’ll learn how to teach your dog to be a dog living in a
human world. Do not bring your dog: this is a discussion class.
