Please come along to two upcoming workshops at Forest Farm Peace Garden. We are an organic permaculture garden working for sustainable food and community, just five minutes from Hainault station on the Central line. We are pleased to be offering these workshops free of charge. They are suitable for beginners, but our experienced instructors will be more than happy to answer specific questions for more experienced participants.
Walking under Medicinal Trees workshop at Forest Farm Peace Garden Sunday 25 March, 10.30am – 4pm Forest Farm Peace Garden, Hazelbrouck Gardens, Hainault, Redbridge Free of charge
Medicines made from the bark, blossom and leaves of beautiful native trees have been used for hundreds of years to treat heart disease, high blood pressure, circulatory problems and allergies to name just a few. At this workshop we will be looking at identification of a number of important British medicinal trees, what part and when we harvest and what we herbalists use them for. The workshop will be taught by Forest Farm Peace Garden’s resident Medical Herbalist, Deborah Syrett, BSc (Hons), MCPP. There will be some hot refreshments, but please bring a packed lunch. Please RSVP as places will are limited. Contact info@forestfarmpeacegarden.org in order to find out more or to RSVP. http://forestfarmpeacegarden.org
Companion planting workshop at Forest Farm Peace Garden Sunday 22 April, 10.30am – 4pm Forest Farm Peace Garden, Hazelbrouck Gardens, Hainault, Redbridge Free of charge
An important aspect of permaculture gardening is companion planting, or interplanting, in which different crops are planted alongside each other in a mutually beneficial way. Understanding companion planting strengthens the resilience, nutritional intake and productivity of your crops. We will plant examples of orchard campanion “guilds” in our newly planted orchard to demonstrate and practice companion planting in a forest garden. We will provide necessary materials and instruction- come prepared for the weather. There will be some hot refreshments, but please bring a packed lunch. Please RSVP as places will are limited.
