- The Propagation post-conference workshop will cover topics such as nursery management skills, creating potting mixes, & propagation methods (seed germination, cuttings, division, air layering & grafting). Participants will get hands-on experience grafting.
- Earthen construction holds many advantages over conventional building methods: fire resistance, temperature control, and minimal impact on the environment. A critical advantage is the low cost! This post-conference workshop will cover theory, design, and hands-on practice.
