2022 Projects and Operational Upgrades

2022 Spring

First Sunday of April 12:00PM

A homestead should always have an area or two for debris and piling up a mess of trees, brush, and weeds. Where through the years a Hugelkutur may form. This Sunday, we're going to make the biggest one in DFW and plant mellons, ginger and some other goodies into it.
If you'd like to join us, DM us and visit our volunteers page to know more

Hügelkultur (German pronunciation: [ˈhyːɡl̩kʊlˌtuːɐ̯]) is a horticultural technique where a mound constructed from decaying wood debris and other compostable biomass plant materials is later (or immediately) planted as a raised bed. Adopted by permaculture advocates, it is suggested the technique helps to improve soil fertility, water retention, and soil warming, thus benefiting plants grown on or near such mounds.[1][2] -www.wikipedia.com
