Less Talk, More WalkGuerrilla Gardening, Wild Harvest and Turning Waste into Resource.
with Jenna McDonald and Nico Cardoun on June 22nd 7-9PM at Soul Food Books in Redmond (http://soulfoodbooks.com/portal/)

To look at a landscape and be able to assess its health and hear its call to fertility is a revolutionary skill and great service to Mother Earth. In this class we will be covering soil/garden health, how to read into the language of the landscape, learning native edible plants and guerrilla gardening. We will explore how to dive into the replenishing of the Earth and her resources without fear or a sense of separation. 

Essentially, what we've learned from our combined experience living in the Wilderness, Traveling world-wide to Sustainable Communities, and Studying Permaculture at both Evergreen State College and University of Washington will be boiled down to the most imperative and passionate pieces of sustainability we have to offer. Open to the interested seeker and master gardener alike! 

This 2 hour hands-on class will cover:

- 10 Essentials for a Sustainable Heart-Land-Connection ("Greening" the home and body-mind)
-Wild Edible and Medicinal Plant walk & preparation techniques (Bring Notebook/Camera)
-Making Eco-friendly "seed bombs" for planting out depleted areas 
-Suggested Reading Lists/Resources
-Making Community Connections/ Networking for the Earth!


It's not too late at all. You just don't yet know what you are capable of. Mahatma Gandhi
