| Description | In this session we will learn to understand plants in terms of their past - where they came from, how they came here, and the cycles and seasons that each plant occupies. This helps us to deepen our awareness of the present and so gives us more awareness of where the next steps can be taken. Here we aim to project ourselves into the future to anticipate the harvest of what we've sown, so as to predict and prepare for the gathering of it. We will look into sun cycles, moon cycles, biodynamic techniques, concepts of time, as well as specific seasonal activity around food culture. This session will involved developing an understanding of patterns and cycles so as to predict events and happenings in nature; a day when the weather will get warm for sowing, a day when it might rain, a day when it might be sunny and good for harvesting. Planning out our growing season ahead of time can save us time by giving us a framework to work around. Part of a series of events about Food and Sustainable Food production These Events run as a complete course, covering many of the core aspects of Organic Horticulture, and the core principles of Permaculture. Yet they can also be treated as individual sessions in their own right. COST - £10 for each individual session, £80 for the whole course.
