It's October, let's talk about burning stuff, shall we? Carbon, to be specific. We have a guest speaker this month from Silvachar Environmental Ltd. from Salmon Arm who will tell us all about how it's made, the benefits, the uses and more information.
You can even pre-purchase a bucket of biochar with a "permie" wee discount and they will bring it for you that evening! (just make sure you select "PICK UP")

Promo code is VERNONPERMACULTURE for 20% off!
As always, this event is FREE, open to everyone and welcoming. We have experienced growers and professionals right on through to beginners new to permaculture.
We start with a "Needs and Yields" exercise to share any surplus we may have or ask for help with something. It brings our community together when we can support each other in this way.
We are open-minded, solutions-focussed and curious learners.
This group meets monthly and is hosted and facilitated by Keli Westgate of @LekkerLandDesign a permaculture-based company in the North Okanagan.
We have been running on the last Wednesday of each month (except December) for about 13 years now!
