Come learn about hedgerows with renowned permaculture teacher Jude Hobbs during our first future fundamentals workshop of 2026. Hedgerows are linear plantings of perennials, often trees and natives that play a key role in agroforestry systems.

Why do hedgerows matter? They provide vital wildlife corridors, encourage pollination, protect against erosion, and provide windbreaks for fragile plantings! Theyโ€™re food, shelter, and nesting places for birds, bees, and small mammals helping to increase and protect the biodiversity of an area.

These workshops are by donation, no donation required! We firmly believe these skills should be accessible ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ๐ŸŒป Please register at the link in bio
