A stream of practical videos
I’m creating a veritable slew of practical walkthrough videos for my online course The Backyard Forest. This is all the stuff I couldn’t squeeze in to the main body of the course, the nitty-gritty how-to stuff. It includes such delights as making maps, researching plants, clearing ground, planting trees etc.
For a full list, and to see which ones have been made, pop over to forestgarden.wales/walkthroughs
The videos are also on my YouTube channel, on a playlist called Practical walkthroughs for The Backyard Forest
