Agroforestry Workshop

A hands-on agroforestry workshop at Fertile Earth Worm Farm introduces participants to the principles behind layered plant systems and food forest design. Taking place Saturday, October 3 in Homestead, the session is led by Matthew and covers how forests develop, how plants can be arranged from soil level to canopy and how those patterns can be adapted for productive landscapes.

The workshop combines field-based learning with practical guidance for participants interested in beginning or refining their own food forest systems. Fertile Earth Worm Farm’s broader work centers on composting and the reuse of organic material, including redirecting edible food to community and animal use before remaining material is composted with worms and microbes.

Admission is $25 per person, with a buy-three, get-one-free offer available.
