Hugelkultur Construction for Home Gardeners with Jeff Binkley

  • One Nature 3 Old Glenham Road Beacon, NY, 12508 United States (map)

Participants will learn about the centuries-old raised bed technique of hugelkultur in which mounds are constructed from decaying wood debris and other compostable biomass. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll discuss why this raised bed technique is effective and which materials are best used.

Participants will leave with a set of written instructions to practice hugelkultur at home.
