Come and learn how to create an edible ecosystem with Christopher Shein, author of "The Vegetable Gardener's Guide to Permaculture"

Prior to creating his book, Christopher spent 20 years in the East Bay as a garden designer applying permaculture design principals to build public and private sustainable gardens and food forests with his landscape business, Wildheart Gardens. With students, he founded the Permaculture Demonstration Garden at Merritt College in Oakland 11 years ago to show ideas for sustainable food gardens as applied in California's dry summer climate. More than 700 students have helped create a wildly productive food forest. 

The Vegetable Gardener's Guide to Permaculture is an inspiring, easy-to-follow, information packed guide that is designed to help readers transform their home & community gardens into productive food forests that will feed them for years to come. 

Permaculture is an ancient, but cutting edge technology, that employs design strategies that work with nature, instead of relying on back breaking work, fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. The permaculture gardener uses methods that build healthy soil, smothers weeds, and promotes plant life, while recycling waste products from the garden.
