Realtime Forest Garden Course No.1 — Survey & Plan
On the first three Wednesdays of June, the livestream will form a complete forest garden course:
Wed 2nd June — Survey & Plan
Wed 9th June — Design & Canopy
Wed 16th June — Ground Prep & Shrubs
The first session is ‘Survey & Plan’, showing you what things to look out for and how to record them, and then how to start on the very exciting process of planning your new forest garden.
The course is for beginners, and will be similar in structure to my paid Backyard Forest course (you can access the Backyard Forest slides here).
At 10.30am, there is a Zoom seminar. Tickets are limited to 6 new participants each week, on a pay-what-you-can-afford basis. Booking one ticket secures a place for the following sessions.
The reason for limiting tickets is so that there is enough time to discuss individual gardens and plans.

New name: Nature Works!
The eagle-eyed amongst you may have noticed a different name at the top of the newsletter. Yep, it is Nature Works.
Forest Garden Wales is too tied to a location and Backyard Forest sounded great but is really similar to Alison Tindale’s perennial vegetable business Backyard Larder. This was totally unintentional and I’d finished the course before I realised! The name Nature Works comes from the subtitle of Creating a Forest Garden by Martin Crawford, which is “Working with nature to grow edible crops”. h/t Martin.
So, I am now NatureWorksGarden on YouTube, Natureworks on Twitch, NatureWorksGdn on Twitter, NatureWorksGarden on Facebook, NatureWorks on Patreon and natureworksgarden on Instagram. That was easy 😅.
Onward and upward Nature Works! ✊🏾
