From the Natural Gardener –

Saturday, May 12th at 10am – Leah Churner of Delta Dawn Gardens (deltadawngardens.com) presents “Urban Permaculture for Austinites.”

Permaculture is a design philosophy that borrows the logic of natural systems to create spaces that are self-sustaining, functional, and beautiful, no matter the size. Rather than a list of techniques, permaculture is a framework for pulling techniques together. If you’ve tried your hand at organic gardening, rainwater harvesting, composting, soil building, or supporting pollinators, you’re already on your way to the permaculture mindset! The magic comes in fitting all of these ecological puzzle pieces together into a cohesive whole.

Leah will introduce you to the concepts of stacking, chunking, guilds, and earthworks, and present some projects you can try at home here in Austin, whether you have a big yard, a small yard, or no yard at all. Leah is a landscape designer and the host of HOTHOUSE, a new podcast about gardening, ecology, and nature (www.hothousepodcast.com).
