LEARNING ABOUT PERMACULTURE AT THE PHOENIX URBAN FARM

Farmer Greg shared his incredible edible yard with us, including lettuce, spinach, radishes, garlic, onions yams, chile peppers, melon, herbs, gourds, and citrus fruits. Everyone ate and brought home many items. We learned about earthworm composting and fed and petted the 19 hens. Families made donations to help support the Urban Farm’s work to educate the public about permaculture. Greg’s definition of permaculture is quite simply, “The art and science of living with nature.” You can check out the Urban Farm at http://www.urbanfarm.org/.
