This course will cover the latest techniques in regenerative agriculture, no-till gardening, cover cropping and related topics. Regenerative agriculture is revolutionizing the world of gardening and farming. As the world faces running out of topsoil in 60 years, regenerative ag restores soil health without the use of commercial fertilizers through the use of mulches, cover crops and compost.
Greg Todd completed the 72-hour permaculture design courses with Geoff Lawton and Andrew Faust. He co-founded a community garden in Brooklyn NY in 2007 which had 12 raised beds, chickens, composting, a greenhouse, aquaponics and solar heating.
