SilvoCulture was so pleased to partner with the enthusiastic folks at Gratitude Farm. On December 5th, SilvoCulture held a workshop for local landowners and community members who wanted to learn more about implementing nut tree plantings onto their own properties. Michael Judd led the workshop and taught participants about holistic landscape design, passive water harvest, and economically viable tree crops such as chestnuts. Participants learned how to mark out a line on contour and then machine-dug a large swale, which is a basin followed by a berm for absorbing water into the landscape.
