Incredible Edible Durham City

Things have been very quiet with this group for a long long long time. Currently though on my permaculture design course there is a team creating a design for an Incredible Edible Framwellgate Moor for a client that lives there. Does anyone here live in Fram or nearby? Would you consider getting involved if it became a real project? There will be a presentation of the design at Alington House next Sat June 8th 2019 at 1.30pm if you are interested then let me know and come along. Wilf P.s the apple trees we planted around the Broompark Picnic Area a few years ago are still growing and I have even seen flowers on them this year and the possibility of fruit. Is there anything you have planted in the street for the public that is going well?

Just been to a meeting at Durham Train Station - this planter will be moved from a shady spot next to the parking machines out onto Platform 2, where it will get lots of sun! We'll be having a planting session with the station staff once it's been moved!Timeline Photoswww.facebook.com

We've got some nasturtium seed to spread around the city this winter. The whole plant is edible and amazingly spicyMobile Uploadswww.facebook.com

Impressed by the edible herb garden at the Durham Amateur Rowing Club. There is fennel, sage, chives, sorrel and marjoram. I think it's built on top of their septic tank access...not surePhotos from Incredible Edible Durham City's postwww.facebook.com

Hi there, just sorted out a poster for the upcoming permaculture course happening in Durham from Feb 2018. If you want more info about the course then send me an email [email protected]

Abundant Earth is now running a monthly Permaculture Gardening Club. The next sessions are October 7th and November 4th. Each session is from 9.30am to 12.30pm and costs £10 per person. It includes a seasonal tour of our market garden, herb teas from our garden, a seasonal snack, a handout for that month and a brief practical activity. The purpose of the sessions is to share our seasonal garden and farm activities from a permaculture perspective alongside recipes, weather lore, wild food and cultural activities. We are also now selling a collation of the monthly handouts. Together these make a small book of over 40 pages, which is being regularly added to. You can purchase this for £10 and I'll even send you an updated version every 12 months. Contact Wilf via email for booking a place on the garden club or for a copy of the garden guide [email protected]
