grown to maturity: heirloom barleys, wheat, quinoa, oats, fava beans,
broccoli, sunflowers, kale, maize, daikon radish, and more. Experiencing

Helpful tools and simple methods will be demonstrated and samples of all
seeds will be shared with participants.

especially good opportunity to bring what you've grown to share and trade
with others.

***Background/Description***
While stewarding one of California's most diverse "food forests", I
periodically link cultural learning opportunities with a need
for hands-on help benefiting this inspirational place.
After teaching, mentoring, and writing often about permaculture and
ecological design, this is a particularly satisfying and effective way to
share community organic growing experience. Enjoy healthy fun while
socializing with our plant-people-friends!
Thanks,
Akiva
