Eagle’s Nest Academy Garden Tour

Many thanks to Bella for taking us on a tour of the Eagle's Nest Academy garden. I learned so much. I saw plants and techniques I had read about in practice. I saw one technique I had never heard of which included burying a tree and planting on top of it. As it rots, it creates a rich community below it. Bella explained that perennial rows were planted in between annual planning areas to enhance soil stability. There was an immense amount of food planted. It was fascinating. Thanks to Bella for giving us the tour and sharing her knowledge.
