Discover the fascinating realm of forest gardening and its potential to transform your garden or farm into a thriving ecosystem.

Forest Gardens: Planting a variety of fast-growing trees, fruit-bearing trees, hardwoods, and food crops in a well-organized way over a span of four years can lead to transformative changes for families. Forest Gardens can encompass thousands of trees, creating a resilient ecosystem that offers families reliable food sources, supports animal husbandry, and generates value-added products, including fuelwood. Remarkably, this approach can result in an average increase of 400% in annual income within just four years, significantly enhancing the quality of life for those involved.

“Hügelkultur” (pronounced hyoo-gul-kulture) is a German word that means mound culture or hill culture. A hügelkultur is a sloped and raised planting bed filled with topsoil, wood, and organic materials. German and European people have practiced it as a gardening method for hundreds of years.

In this workshop, we’ll be inside and and outside to install a Hugel bed. Tea and snack provided.
