Design a low-maintenance, high-yield garden inspired by nature.
Ready to grow an abundant, low-maintenance garden that practically takes care of itself? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to design your own food forest—a layered, self-sustaining system of fruits, herbs, vegetables, and more, modeled after natural ecosystems.
We’ll cover the basics of soil health, plant guilds, water management, and layout planning, so you can start building a food-producing paradise—whether in your backyard, homestead, or community space.
No prior experience needed—just a love for nature and good food!
