This two hour deep dive into the world of an orchard. Josias will take you through the life cycle of a tree, starting with how to properly plant a tree, how to train and prune it, and how to maintain it for optimal health.
In this two hour workshop we will dive deep into one of the most common causes for plant failure in our area - gophers.
This workshop will focus on how to make lacto-fermented sprays and soil drenches for the garden from commonly available grocery items along with herbs, seeds, flowers, and roots from the garden. The resultant ferments are used to stimulate soil life and plant growth, and to increase nutrients and essential oil and plant secondary metabolite production in plants.
