Public Demonstration Food Forest Installation Workshop
January 12, 2019 @ 2:00 am - 8:00 am
This is Day 1 of installation for “Monarch Rose” public demonstration food forest garden in Vacaville. Volunteers will be laying down the foundation of this edible garden: digging on contour swales, making birms, diverting the roof water and planting trees. Break ground with friends and neighbors and learn how to use water wisely while creating an environment where life supporting plants thrive.
Each installation day includes a short lecture from a sustainable landscape expert and hands-on experience on how to build a food forest. Visit Sustainablesolano.com to register
A healthy lunch will be provided by the homeowner. Please bring hats, gloves and a reusable water bottle.
DAY 1: Saturday, Janaury 12th – Laying the foundation.
DAY 2: Saturday, January 19th – Learn to install a water-efficient in-line drip irrigation system and plants
