Permaculture is a design system that aids us in identifying our
resources and needs to create abundant landscapes. This
workshop will feature several techniques to create no dig garden
beds using waste resources. We will highlight simple ways to
increase nutrient availability in your garden as well as methods
for minimizing water usage. This workshop will feature several
underutilized specialty food crops to diverisify one's locally
grown diet. Handouts and links to further resources will be
provided. Please join us.
