Area Meetings!

The newly formed
Perennial Food Growing Group
will be meeting at 6:30 p.m.
Warner Farm in Cummington

Every second and fourth Tuesday

Our goal for now is to learn more about permaculture, by teaching each other and reading selected books on the subject. For the next month or two the text we are working out of is “Gaia’s Garden” by Toby Hemenway. Please join us. We intend to read part one (70 pages) by the November 10th meeting and Part Two by the November 24th meeting.

Our immediate focus is apple guilds (the community/ecosystem of flora, fauna, fungi and conditions that comprise a healthy environment for apple trees/orchard). So really, please join us...Let’s build some momentum for perennial food gardening in the hilltowns!

Warner Farm is located near the Cummington Fairgrounds on Porter Hill Rd.
