Two Bear Gardens Guided Tour
Join Tammy Ratliff at Two Bears Gardens as she takes you on a guided tour of her small family farm in Port Angeles. Tammy is dedicated to raising the healthiest food possible to feed her family, her friends, and her community. Her farming philosophy is based on the principles of permaculture, the practice of using natural systems to create a sustainable method of growing food and improving the land upon which we all depend. Tammy believes in being good stewards of the land so that it will continue to provide for future generations.
Tammy will show you how she grows large quantities of food on a small amount of land in a sustainable way. She will be highlighting permaculture techniques like swales and hugelkultur and show how she uses vertical gardening to grow large quantities of food on a small farm. You will also learn about her techniques for overwintering crops to see how you too can grow fresh produce year-round on the Olympic Peninsula.
Tammy has been growing food for 30+ years. In addition to farming, she is a small farm and garden consultant. She has a certification in Permaculture Design and Sustainable Agriculture. Tammy especially enjoys helping beginner gardeners and farmers.
