SUMMARY:Permaculture Roots 4 - Planting a Food Forest!
DESCRIPTION:Hillsborough\, NC \n\n\n\nFor information on the whole Permaculture Roots workshop series\, please see this page. \n\n\n\nWe are grateful to be putting on this workshop in collaboration with Living Arts Collective and in the lovingly tended space of Jubilee Healing Farm. \n\n\n\nEach workshop in this series will include opportunities to connect with nature and our senses\, learn Permaculture design\, answer your questions\, and meet other amazing humans interested in Permaculture. \n\n\n\nThis Workshop:\n\n\n\nFor our fourth workshop in 2025\, we’re planting the Food Forest we started designing in May! \n\n\n\nWe’ll review the Food Forest design\, talk more about the plants we’re going to plant while they’re there\, and get good hands-on experience creating a real Food Forest that will grow and thrive for generations. \n\n\n\nAlthough we’ll have a design\, we’ll still leave room for inspiration to change it! We’ll invite participants to keep their senses open as they work and listen for ways to make the Food Forest evolve past the design into something fully alive. Bring your creativity and sense of beauty (as well as your willingness to help dig a hole or two). \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to have attended any of our other workshops to participate in this one. \n\n\n\nThis workshop has a lower cost to attend because there will be a lot of hands-on time and participants will be helping the installation to happen. \n\n\n\nMain Topics:\n\n\n\n\nFood Forest Review / Questions\n\n\n\nHands-On Food Forest Learning!\n\n\n\nInstalling the Food Forest From Pattern to Detail\n\n\n\nUsing Some Favorite Hand Tools\n\n\n\nPlanting Trees (…the Easy Way That Works)\n\n\n\nInstalling Tree “Guilds”\n\n\n\nMaking a Plan to Work with the Food Forest\n\n\n\nAnswering Any Other Permaculture Questions\n\n\n\n\nVenue and Workshop Details:\n\n\n\nThis 5-part series is held at Jubilee Healing Farm – a beautifully tended small farm located on 10 acres in Hillsborough\, NC that supports volunteer and community-building activities and workshops for people seeking healing. \n\n\n\nWe’ll have the workshop part inside and part outside unless the weather disagrees!  Please wear comfortable clothing for the day. If it’s going to rain a little\, bring rain gear. A little rain is very helpful for Permaculture design! \n\n\n\n If you’re concerned about ticks or other itchy expressions of the local ecology\, please bring non-toxic insect deterrent. \n\n\n\nWhat to Bring:\n\n\n\n\nJournal and pen – while digital is OK\, we strongly suggest using paper!\n\n\n\nYour own lunch and any snacks you need (kitchen available to heat up food)\n\n\n\nWater bottle\n\n\n\n\nAlso: \n\n\n\n\nOpenness to different ways of seeing and living\n\n\n\nKindness towards the plants\, animals\, soil\, water\, and other people here\n\n\n\nInclusivity and welcoming spirit towards the people in the workshop\n\n\n\nWillingness to put your phones away and tune into your senses\n\n\n\nCuriosity about life and what each other and the land has to say\n\n\n\n\nSign-Up\n\n\n\nWe offer our tickets at a rate that allows us to continue doing this work. Thank you for supporting it. \n\n\n\n If you have any questions\, please reach out to workshops@silverbranchpermaculture.org. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Facilitator\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatthew “Watersong” Tracy started practicing Permaculture in 2011 and received his design certificate from Wild Abundance in 2015. He has been consulting and teaching as a Permaculture Designer since 2018. \n\n\n\nAlong the way\, he learned from numerous Permaculture teachers\, tended land with minimal inputs\, worked with around 50 clients on their land\, lived off-grid for nearly a decade\, and made (… and still makes!) a whole lot of humbling and valuable mistakes on his way back to life in harmony with the earth.  \n\n\n\nWith all that experience\, Matt is ever a beginner and student of the land.  Nature is infinite.  What can we do but listen and try? \n\n\n\nMatt is honored to be a Permaculture guide to anyone interested in coming a little closer to the earth. Becoming a father in 2023 has made passing down these teachings that always consider future generations more important than ever. \n\n\n\nRead the rest of Matt’s bio here.
