Permaculture is a way of living that mimics the patterns found in nature. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to plan a veggie garden based on permaculture principles. Topics to be covered include:

  • Zoning for convenience and access.
  • Designing for sun and wind.
  • Soil health.
  • Water systems.
  • Bed construction types.
  • Appropriate plant choices.
  • Swales, sheet mulching, food forests, and guild planting.

The workshop will also include a walk and talk around Edendale to see examples of permaculture techniques in action, plus participants will make a mud map of their own growing space to help plan their future permaculture plot.

Presenters: Lucinda Flynn and Jules Jay.
