Intro to Permaculture in Your Garden

Come find out about using permaculture principles in your garden in this introductory class. We’ll give an overview of what permaculture is, and we’ll cover “zone planning,” “relative location,” and “sheet mulching” in detail. The class will combine teacher presentation and hands-on activity, and will take place in the teacher’s extensive working garden. The series will be taught by Christopher Shein. Christopher runs Wildheart Gardens, an edible, native, medicinal and other useful plant permaculture nursery, design and landscaping business in Oakland. He teaches at Merritt College, and helps run the Bay Area Seed Interchange Library and SPACE, as well as other urban agriculture projects. Cost: $10 EC members, $15 others, no one turned away.
