Watershed Stewardship and Permaculture in Castle Valley

A free workshop by Canyonlands Watershed Council with Jeff Adams and Jeremy Lynch, in collaboration with Grand County Library

Saturday, February 25th, 2017 10:00am to 12:30pm at the Castle Valley Library

During this interactive workshop you will discover the fundamentals of permaculture design, learn techniques for watershed stewardship, and participate in assessment and visioning sessions for the Castle Valley Town buildings' landscaped areas. Examples of local and regional projects will highlight shovel ready solutions for gully stabilization and erosion control, water harvesting landscape features, building healthy soils, and greywater systems. Building on the classroom presentation, participants will transition outdoors to engage in the art of "reading the landscape" and discuss site-specific opportunities to enhance the beauty, funciton, and resilience of the site.

Funding for this workshop provided by NewBelgium Brewery and provate donors.
