SOW IT! GROW IT! EAT IT! Gardening, Permaculture + Good Food - YEAR SERIES
Event Information
About this Event
This is for beginner-intermediate gardeners and foodies, those new to or wishing to increase their knowledge on Urban Gardening / Permaculture / Healthy Food – and the infinitely curious!
This YEAR-TRAINING runs from March to October – beginning with sowing seeds in the spring, growing our food throughout the months that follow, and ending with harvesting and preserving the food in the autumn. We will also enjoy a day on a Permaculture Farm in Brandenburg!
In the Sow it! Grow it! Eat it! workshop series, we will learn how to produce food according to nature’s cycles in city settings of all scales. Wherever you wish to plant - window sills, balconies, roof-tops, community gardens - all scales are possible!
Parallel to this, we introduce you to the world of culinary nutrition - preparing food together, learning how to incorporate our produce in seasonal recipes, along with their nutritional benefits.
The holistic concept of Permaculture is central to our learning and its application to our urban gardens, lifestyles & beyond.

- Introduction to Urban Gardening, Permaculture / Social Permaculture & Culinary Nutrition
