2018 Fuller Field School and Farm Design Class
April 18 - April 20
Event Navigation
Please find below the flyers for this years school “Soil Is Life”, and for the farm design class, “Designing For The Future.” There is a combo price if you attend all 3 days. This years school features Walter Jehne, and Judith Schwartz. This years discussion will center around water, and the water cycle. There will also be some discussion involving nutrition and nutrient dense food. For those that have attended in the past, you already know that the conversation could also go in many different directions. Early bird registration is open, and runs through March 31. I have included jpeg flyers for those that need them. Please share far and wide!
We are excited that Walter has agreed to stay over and teach a farm design class on Friday April 20th. Walter has extensive knowledge in permaculture design, and has agreed to help us design our operations (large or small) to make them as efficient as possible. This is a great opportunity to help you set the course for future generations. There is a combo price for those that want to attend all 3 days.
There has been an issue with one of the videos (Don Huber) from last years school. It has been resolved, and I apologize for any inconvenience. I have attached a link in case you have not seen them yet. Please feel free to share! https://vimeo.com/249097156.
A special thank you to Keith Berns and Green Cover Seed for setting us up with a PayPal account. If you have a Pay Pal account you may through the link provided, or send a check to me. Info is on the flyer. https://
Seating is limited to the first 150 and we are expecting another sell out. As with past schools, we plan on visiting the farm on the afternoon of the 18th. We will host several sessions outside and finish the day with a meal catered to the farm. Cost for this meal is $20. This has become the most popular part of the school. Sitting around networking with the speakers and other like minded individuals is a great way to finish out day 1. Oh, and the food is really good too!
