Food Forest Workshop not one to miss!!

Just a friendly reminder that this weekend at the Acadia Farm we are hosting a workshop on Food Forest Design (info attached, and below).  Thank you to those who have responded and already signed up! We’re looking forward to meeting you. 

Additional information to note: 
  • Rain date: Sunday July 8th, same time and place.  An email will be sent out if the workshop is moved to Sunday. 
  • There is likely going to be a “work party” after the workshop to continue planting, if necessary. This may be a good opportunity to stick around and ask Graham more questions, get more practice with the concepts, etc.  If you plan to stay, bring a hearty snack. We’ll have  a quick break with refreshments, but not a meal, for you.
