FOREST GARDEN COURSECourse Proposal: Dear all, After conversations with Rakesh (Forest Gardening - Permaculture teacher), we have come up with a proposal for a 1 year long forest gardening course. (17 classes in total) The course would take place at Niall's back garden, a really beautiful space that we visited a few weeks ago. That's a 5 minutes walk from the triangle on Central Hill. The course outline is as follows: Introduction (2 days) - 21st & 22nd April (Saturday & Sunday) Design Stage: (2 days) - 20th & 27th of May (Sundays) Implementation Stage: (1 Class a month on a Sunday) June, July & August: Preparing the ground and path ways - some planting possible September, October & November - Planting December, January, February - Not much to do in the garden but we would cover many other things during these 3 months. Also he said it would be good to assess our progress and think of what could have been done better etc. March, April, May & June - New planting season _________________________________________________ The course will be limited to 20 people. The cost will be £200 each day to be divided between the whole group. This is a great opportunity for all of us who would like to learn about forest gardening at a cheap rate. Most courses such as this would charge each participant between £100 to £150 for 2 classes. Please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested in taking part in this project. I would like to highlight that this is a group project and that it would be great to have support from everyone involved in order to run the course the best way we can. For more information please don't hesitate to contact me: [email protected]. If you would like to call me to ask any questions or make suggestions my phone number is: 07817 509072 Thanks very much! Best wishes, Rodrigo |
