Join Yard to Market Co-op as we welcome fruit tree guru Zach Halfin to teach us all about these edible gems of the landscape. He will cover best planting techniques, including site selection and variety selection. He will also cover the pruning of trees for optimal production and some pest control techniques as well.
A permablitz is a hands on workshop designed to help people grow a fully sustainable perennial food forest while teaching others how to do the same.
This event needs volunteers to make this dream happen. Come out to learn how to fully implement a permaculture design complete with earthworks, fruit trees, farmers trees, vegetables, and herbs.
Hosted by One World Permaculture and Hill Country Natives with Caroline Riley, Mike Wolfert and Colby Stoker.
One of the most amazing things about working with plants and ecosystems is there ability to self replicate and reproduce. With a little help from us, the efficiency and success rates of these behaviors can become astronomical.
This workshop will help you learn how to help plants do what they already strive to do without us, grow and reproduce.
