Design and Plant an Urban Edible Yard

When: April 17 - 18, 10 - 5 both days

Cost: $195, some work trade available (offer something to barter!)

Teachers: Jenny Pell and Marisha Auerbach

 

Imagine transforming an urban lawn into an abundant garden in a weekend!

Join us and learn:

 

- Design techniques to quickly & beautifully convert an average urban yard

into a diverse edible garden

- Sheet mulching techniques

- Trellising and vertical gardening

- How to grow the best annual and perennials fruits and vegetables for the

Pacific NW

- How to create " suntraps " to extend the growing season

- and more!! ...

 

 

We will cover soil preparation, plant selection, strategies for growing food

in small spaces, and water saving strategies. We will be planting annual

vegetables as well as perennial berries, edible flowers, medicinal herbs, and

fruit trees. This is a design and install event - come prepared to dig in the

garden as well as learn design.

 

Learning skills that help us provide for our basic needs and help prepare us

for a post-carbon future not only makes a lot of sense, but also is incredibly

empowering, joyful, and satisfying. Many people complain of feeling powerless

and depressed in the face of such huge changes happening around us. Building

basic skills also builds community, gets you involved in actively realizing a

different and more resilient future, and just feels good from the inside out.

All of the basic permaculture skillsets can be converted into savings, part-time

income, or cottage industries, especially on the local scale. Invest in yourself

and your community; the rewards are enormous!!
