Along with Contour Lines Corp we will be leading the planting
of a 3-acre diversified food forest which will feature a number
of fruit trees and native support trees planted on contour in a
system of berms and swales. This is a unique demonstration
project on conservation land, which will be managed in
perpetuity so that we can all learn about the numerous benefits
and beauty of perennial agroforestry and food forest systems.

Folks will receive a solid introduction on how to plan and plant a food forest agroforestry site that includes hundreds of
fruit and support trees on a berm and swale contour system. Some species we will be planting include Black Locust, Willow,
Cottonwood, Elderberry, Mulberry, Persimmon, Apple, Pear, Blueberry, Fig and Peaches.

Join us, rain or shine, for all or any part of the day to learn, observe, and take part in planting if you choose. Please bring a
water bottle, gloves, raincoat/work clothes if you’re planting; tools will be provided.

Lunch will be provided midway between our morning classroom portion, and then the rest of the day will be hands-on work.
