OPEN GARDEN DAY II

URBAN PERMACULTURE DESIGN SITE

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 11, 2011  10am to 3pm

110 DELAWARE AVENUE ITHACA NEW YORK (Next to College Town) @ Irving Place

Permaculture is a design science by which we pattern our surroundings to harmonize with nature rather than to subdue nature.  The end result is a farm or garden that is a low-input, self-organizing, mature polyculture ecosystem. 

110 Delaware: This working urban homestead and edible landscape marries style and function, and an aesthetically pleasing arrangement of shapes, patterns and colors.

 

Stop by, Rain or Shine, No Charge  10am to 3pm

  • Complete rain water catchment system for irrigation
  • Integrated pond system and fish farm
  • 4 season greenhouse with an enclosed Aquaponic System
  • Terraced gardens with stone and rock garden microclimates
  • Solar PV panels and hot water vacuum tubes
  • Companion plantings, guilds and niches
  • Timberframe Pergola with mounted solar panels
  • Alternative clover "lawn"

Special Guests:

Karryn Olson-Ramanujan is a co-founder and lead teacher for the Finger Lakes Permaculture Institute. 

She'll be here from 12-2 pm to give a brief explanation of permaculture and answer your questions.  Karryn emphasizes that permaculture is not "a new way to garden," but aims to teach people the skills to design for a regenerative future for all.  She also offers consulting services in Strategic Sustainability Planning.
