About this event
One of 14 upcoming events at Martha's Vineyard Agricultural Society.
Sunday, October 11th from 1–2:30 PM at Beetlebung Farm Forest gardens provide a unique opportunity for backyard growers to incorporate perennial food plants and apply permaculture principles (permanent agriculture) into their gardening methods. Through this guided demonstration, participants will learn how to account for shade, approach fencing, and minimize soil disturbance while making a food forest. They will learn to interplant fruits, vegetables, herbs, medicinals, and pollinator plants to create a living community of food producing plants! COST: FREE and open to all, registration required.
