Introduction to Permaculture (Free workshop!)

May 27, 2017 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Join Community Forklift’s own Jane Matt as she teaches the basics of Permaculture and food forest design. She’ll discuss techniques and design principles which can be used for all types of landscapes: large and small; urban and rural.

Through this workshop, Jane hopes to inspire participants to do further research and create their own “yardens” and food forests. She’ll also help guide attendees toward viewing the world with Permaculture in mind, and recognizing how everything is interconnected, and how humans play a large role in sustainability, while at the same time growing a lot of our own food and harvesting rainwater to recharge our aquifers and help our watershed. Attendees will learn some of the basic skills and techniques needed to create a sustainable habitat for both humans and wildlife in their own unique backyards or larger properties.
