Living Willow Fence Workshop
with Sima Usvyatsov, Andrew Mathis, and friends
May 24 @ 9:00 am – 4:30 pm
Join us to learn how to plant, weave, and maintain living willow fences and tunnels. In addition to the planting and weaving, we will also learn about preparing the site for the planting and care for the fence after planting. We will create 20 ft of a living fence, as well as a 5 ft willow tunnel, at the Food Forest site in the Botanic Garden. At lunch, you’ll also have the opportunity to check out the Botanic Garden’s annual plant sale! Please bring your own lunch for the full-day workshop. Please dress for the weather and bring work gloves and sharp pruners if you have them, as well as your own lunch. IMPORTANT: Meet us at the Prospect St entrance to the Garden (695 Prospect St, Fredericton) and we will drive you to the site through the Garden, to avoid the parking congestion at the Resource Center due to the May 24 plant sale.
Fees: $100 for members, $110 for non-members, max 25 participants.
