Creating a Food Forest

Layering shrubs to provide fruit, flowers, fragrance, and fall color creates a beautiful plant tapestry. Plan a food forest that includes a privacy fence, a pollinator-friendly habitat, protection from pests, and protection from wind and snow. Reap the benefits of domesticating the forest through plants that actually thrive and improve the soil. Bring note-taking materials, lunch, snacks, and beverages to stay comfortable throughout the class. The instructor will be available during the break to share garden stories and answer your questions.
