Fast Track Your Food Forest Workshops
'​Fast Track Your Food Forest' is a series of hands-on workshops held across Northland and beyond.
In these sessions you’ll learn how to design, establish, and manage a syntropic food forest that evolves quickly, produces abundance, and regenerates the land rather than depleting it.
​
Whether you’re starting from pasture or grass, or retrofitting an existing orchard or garden, the same underlying principles apply. We’ll guide you through the key practices that allow natural systems to work with you - accelerating growth, improving soil health, and creating resilient, productive landscapes.
​
These workshops are ideal for landowners, gardeners, community projects and anyone wanting to build thriving food systems.
