Classes:
We grow in harmony with nature, not trying to defy it. Our gardens are diverse and bountiful, and are always changing with something new planted every week, adding variety for the soil health and bees and trying to confuse the insect pests.
These classes are not oriented toward permaculture certificates. These are applicable to home gardening and farming.
Reservations required.
At these classes we will dig, plant, hoe and get our hands in the dirt.
THERE IS NO POWERPOINT. The gardens are the classroom.
A digital handout will be provided for future reference–not for you to look at during the class
March 19, 2023—Planting the spring garden with vegetables and fruit. Lots of permaculture gardening and a little bit of fruit tree info.
Classes on Sundays and begin at 10:00 in the morning and should last about 4 hours.

We are a small permaculture farm in northern Waller County, Texas near Hempstead.
We grow for direct sales at farmer markets, offer a CSA, deliver to restaurants, have farm dinners, and have other on-farm events.
Regenerative agriculture is the key to sustainability and we are learning, teaching and practicing what we can.
We grow everything with no synthetic fertilizers, fungicides, pesticides, or herbicides. We follow organic rules, using permaculture and biodynamic farming principles. We raise produce, chickens for eggs, broiler chickens, Gulf Coast Native Sheep.
SHEEP FOR SALE We have lots of ram lambs this year. They sell for $300 each and will be weaned and available by April. Email me through the contacts page for info.
