Saturday Afternoon in the Forest Garden - September 27
3100 South Salina St, Sat Sept 27 from 1 pm - 2:30 pm
Learn, steward, and grow together at Rahma - the longest running forest garden project in Syracuse dating back to 2010. Come see our mature ecosystem and how we'll be managing it to keep in check and arrest succession to the benefit of our fruit producing species.
We'll work together to clean-up debris and keep the bindweed and cleavers back from the berry patch (serviceberry, jostaberry, blackberry, thimbleberry, raspberry, seaberry), prune competing weed trees from the apples and peaches, care for the emerging pawpaw patch, and so much more using permaculture design and polyculture principles to manage the ground cover and understory with clearing, planting, propagation, and signing.
Meet at 1 pm for orientation/brief tour, work from 1:15 - 2:30, debrief and clean-up! Snacks provided.
