Do you want to grow incredibly abundant fruit & vegetables in your backyard?
In this workshop, we will explore the mysteries of the garden. Plants were grown for many purposes—Food, Fibre, Fertility, Insectary, Nectary, Climate, Flowers, Privacy, etc.
We’ll discuss the intensive soil preparation for close planting and continuous cropping, and the growth and care of fruits and vegetables & orchard ecosystem. You will gain invaluable knowledge on the establishment, as well as the ongoing maintenance of a thriving backyard system. We will demystify the necessary art everybody should know about the workings of abundant backyards from soil biology to health management. This is something anyone with space and desire can do - given knowledge and a commitment to observe the teachings from natural systems. We will be spending time on design for productivity, as well as experience of place (some call it edible landscaping) and production for much or all of the year.
An abundant grower knows that producing fruit is not about manipulating nature but more importantly, fostering nature.
