This workshop will be geared towards small-scale, commercial production and will include hands-on activities and tool demonstrations. Useful for those already growing herbs as well as beginners. The main focus will be on what tasks need to be done at this time of year. Our systems are influenced by agroforestry & permaculture. This is the 4th year that we have offered this seasonal series of workshops.

Topics Include: Design, planting, species, harvesting, irrigation, weeding, marketing and so much more. We will look at examples of rhizomatous bed crops, annuals, biennials, 4-year root crops, long-term perennials, sub-shrubs, trees, etc. We will discuss how to start new plots using a tractor or hand tools. How to achieve good production starting in year one and every year thereafter.
