FARM Center holds monthly gatherings to share knowledge and work together making food forests.
We will explore strategies for growing food in the space around your home in an abundant, resilient, and low maintenance food forest. We are passionate about multi-strata food forests intended for abundant food for consumption and sharing with neighbors. These gatherings are specifically intended for people who have some previous gardening experience and want to gain more so that they can more easily grow a forest-like garden in ways that benefit both people and the natural world.
Things we will focus on depending on group interest:
+ preparing your site
+ selecting species
+ developing a planting pattern
+ planting techniques
+ maintenance and harvest
We have made it our lives' work to regenerate food systems with food forestry (agroforestry). Together, we have over 30 years experience and we have had the great privilege of working in many different environments in Hawaii and the Pacific region: from arid to wet, low to high elevation, rocky lava to deep soils, so that we are well-versed at methods and species used in many different situations.
Please tell us a bit about yourself and select a range of dates that work best with your schedule. We will reach out to you with details on the. next gathering.
