The workshop- Have you ever wondered if there is an easier, more efficient way of gardening and farming then turning, digging, tilling and weeding? We invite you to join us and learn about sheet mulching, a method of soil improvement, weed suppression, water conservation and nutrient recycling which requires no digging, next to no weeding and can be done by anyone using local resources with very little effort or expertise. We will be sheet mulching several areas for spring plantings and there will be beds that were sheet mulched last spring available for inspection and analysis. Please join us as we learn about the many attributes and applications of sheet mulching!
