Learn how to incorporate fruits, nuts, vegetables, herbs, and much more by mimicking a forest. This will take you beyond planting annuals to incorporating trees, shrubs and perennials that bear fruit year after year. The class will cover key concepts, design and site preparation steps, and examples of plants to create your own food forest. We'll begin with an interactive presentation (10am - 11:45am) in the Community Center. Then meet from noon - 1pm to enjoy a tour of the new Beacon Food Forest at Jefferson Park. Plus, you'll have an opportunity for hands-on experience in sheet mulching and planting berries and groundcovers. Please bring garden gloves, a trowel, weather-appropriate gardening clothes and a sack lunch.
Instructor: Kimberly Leeper/Jacqueline Cramer, Landscape professionals and permaculture designers / educators
