Prairie Permaculture Event Yorkton - Vertical Gardening and Raised Beds

Another August event by Prairie Permaculture. If you can't make one, maybe you can make the other!

Urban Permaculture
Vertical Gardening and Raised Beds – August 25, 2013

Space is limited! Reserve your spot early by contacting Rob or Stacey by telephone at 306.782.1613 or email Stacey.
  “It’s not about how much land you have, but how much land you can control”“so grow as close to home as possible, use vertical intensive systems at the doorstep”

Urban Permaculture lends itself well to creativity. Your garden can be one of whimsy and high productivity. In this workshop you’ll learn about different intensive systems (including a herb spiral) and how to build raised beds. You will gain knowledge into what works well together (companion planting) and how to use guilds for maximum productivity. There will also be a presentation on Urban Permaculture. (the one I gave at this years’ Seedy Saturday)

Time: 2-4pm
Where: 151 and 155 Gladstone Ave. North, Yorkton (parking on road)
*meet at 155 Gladstone Ave. North
When: Sunday August 25, 2013
Cost: $25

Prairie Permaculture Event Yorkton - Food Forest Design

Check out this awesome event being held by Prairie Permaculture in August!

Food Forest Design
Personal Projects August 10 or 11, 2013

Gain insight and experience into the process of Food Forest design – this workshop includes design time for you to work on your own design. We will be there for guidance, consulting and questions. This workshop is a follow up to our June workshop – Food Forests for the Urban Space. Yard tour included as we discuss what guilds and perennial systems we are implementing to expand on our Food Forest design. Contact us for more details as there are some things you need to get ready for your design work! Our plan for this year is to help people put together some food forest designs for themselves (with our help of course!) and then organize some permablitz implements for the following year! You could have your design come to life and planted in 2014 for FREE.
