Permaculture in the City with Ron Berezan



Keiskamma Canada Foundation
presents
“Permaculture in the City”
Emerging Visions for Urban Agriculture

Thursday, May 7th
7:00 PM – 9:30 PM
Bonnie Doon Hall
9240 – 93 st, Edmonton

From backyards, to rooftops, to community gardens, why is growing food in the city becoming increasingly common around the world?

Spend an evening with Ron Berezan, “The Urban Farmer”, and explore the many benefits and models of growing food in urban areas, drawing on international and local examples. Engage in hands-on activities and learn about permaculture techniques for producing an abundant and organic harvest in an urban setting - including the wide range of edible species that grow in the Edmonton area.

The cost is $40.


A portion of the workshop fees will go to Keiskamma Canada Foundation.

    I'm new to this process but I wanted to be able to let people know how many spaces are left in the permiculture workshop. Today there are 15 spaces remaining.
