LGL is a 13 acre facility, with approximately 3 to 4 acres in cultivation. Students from Portland Public Schools and Portland State University have been participating in the making of this garden, and a lot of planning goes into the overall site design. How can you be resourceful, follow the seasons, and close all the loops for a successful garden design? Come learn how to perform a site analysis through permaculture methods, and techniques, such as zone and sector analysis. Afterwards, we will take a tour of the grounds, identifying plants, learning from mistakes, and “best practices.”
