Winter Workshop Series

We are excited to be able to offer several classes this winter to get you further along on your gardening/homesteading journey. We hope this will be a time to collaborate with other like-minded homesteaders, build local community, and find ways to help each other be more successful in our homesteading journeys!  We may add some more classes/dates if we need to, so keep an eye out here for additional information.

Building a Resilient Homestead Saturday, December 7, 2024 

For this workshop we are focusing on basic homestead system design and what elements you need to provide a more self-sufficient and sustainable homestead that meets your family’s needs. We’ll begin with a self-assessment to see where you are, then we’ll move you through the steps to get you where you want to be.  Topics include design using permaculture principles, water, energy,  structures, livestock, and food production.

Saturday, December 7, on the farm (206 Dugan Lane, Bloomfield, KY 40008) from 10am to 3pm, lunch from farm produce is included. Class is limited to 10-12 persons and is $30 a person or $50 a couple. Older children are welcome, please leave pets at home.  Contact us by email or phone to book your spot.  email: goodearthfarm@yahoo.com

 

Planning Your Garden for 2025! January 11, 2025

Join us for a garden planning workshop.  2025! What a great year to actually get started doing what you have been meaning to do–substantially increasing your self-sufficiency in food production, with a great garden!

Join us to brainstorm, plan, and get inspiration from like-minded folks who love to garden!  Whether you have only a small space or are a market garden hopeful, we’ll walk you through several growing techniques you can use, as well as share with you the very best varieties of vegetables and fruits to grow in our area (Kentucky and Southern Indiana), based on our 20+ years of growing experience.  We’ll cover seed starting and help you get your garden calendar scheduled so you know what to plant and when to plant it.

Final date and details to be announced, but contact us by email or phone for more information or to book your spot.  email: goodearthfarm@yahoo.com

Small Fruit and Orchard Production  February/March 2025

 Join us for our popular annual orchard grafting/pruning workshop.  This workshop is focused on tree fruit production and most years we do half a day of fruit-tree grafting and half a day of pruning.  We may split this into two classes this year depending on demand, or focus more on small fruit production.  Either way this is the workshop to attend if fruit production of any kind is a goal on your homestead.  

Final date and details to be announced, but contact us by email or phone for more information or to book your spot.  email: goodearthfarm@yahoo.com
