This course is intended for gardeners who would like to learn about permaculture and consider integrating perennial ecosystems that produce food into their existing gardens. We will be considering apples, asparagus, hazel nuts, tree nuts and others plus learning to use plants for nitrogen fixation, mineral extraction, attracting beneficial insects, mulch and other functions. Specific plant needs and habits will be covered as we plan for mutually beneficial interactions.

Keith Morris is a farmer and designer who joins us from Willow Crossing Farm and Prospect Rock Permaculture in Jeffersonville, Vermont. His work promotes economically viable farms and homesteads with systems that are integrated and patterned to increase ecological health while meeting human needs.
