Permaculture Workshop: Designing a Self Supporting Edible Landscape, with Keith Morris
Place: North Bennington Train Station
To register: NorthBenningtonEdibleForest.weebly.com
This one-day course is intended for gardeners who would like to design and plant ecosystems that produce food. We will be considering apples, asparagus, hazel nuts, tree nuts and others plus learning to use plants for nitrogen fixation, mineral extraction, attracting beneficial insect, mulch and other functions. Specific plants' 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.
