Edible gardens
				Gardening Like the Forest   Date: May 24, 2007
Time: 6pm-8pm   Location: The Civic Garden   Center of Greater  Cincinnati      
Healthy forest ecosystems are self-maintaining, self-fertilizing, and self-renewing.  Wouldn’t it be nice to grow food in an ecosystem like that in your back yard?  Well, you can!  Edible forest gardening is the design of gardens that mimic the structure and function of natural forests, but also grow food, fuel, fiber, fodder, fertilizers, and “farmaceuticals.”  This talk provides an overview of the concept, with inspiring and practical ideas, images, and examples, as well as information on the multiple uses of some key forest garden plants.   Fee: $10   Registration required.
