Description:
    Edible Landscaping and Permaculture: Have your yard and eat it too!

What is Permaculture? In a nutshell, Permaculture is a design process which aims to optimize the health of an ecosystem, while also providing for human needs. By employing permaculture techniques in our edible landscapes, we mimic natural systems, letting nature do the work. Thus our inputs are minimized and our yields are increased.

This presentation will cover basic techniques for edible landscaping, edible forest gardening, polycultures and plant guilds, perennial vegetables, organic no till gardening, and much more.

Come and learn how you can convert your yard into an eco-edible-paradise, which provides food, medicine, fuel, fodder, fiber, fertilizer, wildlife and pollinator habitat, and of course: fun for all ages!
