This is a great training in this inspiring ecological edible gardening technique where we are part of the Wildlife!
Learn about this ecological gardening technique to grow our food, meet many human needs and increase wildlife. Based on principles found in nature, forest gardens will need less and less work over the years whilst providing more and more yields. Amazing!
Whether you are interested in green issues, wildlife, re-wilding, wellbeing or responding to climate change.
We will cover: Regenerative Food growing techniques. Permaculture and food growing. Growing food for biodiversity, wellbeing and climate action inspired by Permaculture. How to think like a Forest. Design, implementation, maintenance.
This course has evolved over the last 14 years and many years fo designing, experimenting and learning.
Why do the series? Each day covers similar content but deeper in the specific area. By doing the series we can support you more in your personal/community food forest project with the bonus of monthly zoom calls between the sessions.
