Hi everyone!

Here's a reminder and more info about our Creating an Edible Oasis Food Forest Course - happening this Sunday, Feb. 28 from 10AM to 5PM. We will be out there rain or shine! (The first half of the day we will be out of the rain no matter what!)

We definitely have enough people for the course to happen, but still have plenty of room. I would love to pack this place - for a number of reasons! I'm offering for anyone that brings a friend, gets $10 off for each friend they bring! Just make sure you have your friends register online, then make note of it upon checking in on the day of the course.

I would really love to get this opportunity out there to people who aren't in the loop about this event, so if you can forward this to a few friends, or a group please do!

Lot's of love,
Devin

Have you ever dreamed of transforming your lawn into a food forest?

Imagine walking out into your yard or neighborhood and being surrounded by delicious nut trees, berry bushes, edible greens, and nourishing herbs all around. This is all possible in a Food Forest - the most productive and resilient landscape pattern we can create. They provide an abundance of food, medicine, fuel, fiber, and beauty year round with minimal maintence. What if the process of converting lawns into food forest was easy? Well it is! With Creating an Edible Oasis, you will walk away with all the tools you need to create food forests in your life!

In this course we will cover:
-Food Forest Design
-Plant Guilds and Species Lists
-Water Harvesting Earthworks 
-Soil Building
-Hands-on implementation of a food forest!
-Option: Mentoring in Creating YOUR Edible Oasis!
