Plant Guilds & Permaculture

Step into the world of permaculture gardening and discover the powerful potential of plant guilds—nature’s blueprint for sustainable, self-supporting landscapes. Join us at B.B. Barns for an enlightening seminar that will show you how to build healthy, productive plant communities that mimic natural ecosystems.

In this session, our permaculture specialist will introduce you to the concept of guild planting—where trees, shrubs, herbs, flowers, and ground covers are intentionally combined to support each other and create a thriving, low-maintenance environment. You’ll learn:

The key components of a plant guild and how they work together
How to choose the right plant partners for your space and goals
Design strategies for creating food forests, pollinator pockets, and soil-building systems
Real-life examples and simple steps to start your own guild at home
Whether you’re building a backyard food forest, supporting native wildlife, or simply interested in smarter, more sustainable gardening practices, this seminar offers practical guidance and creative inspiration for every level of gardener.

This event is free! Please register to attend.
