Super excited for Bitternut Homestead to host an Open House and Backyard Garden Tour & Foraging Walk on Saturday May 9th. You’ll experience and learn more about perennial polyculture gardening, wild foraging species, and Alchemical’s propagation activities. The Open House will be from 11am – 2 pm, and the 1-hour Tour & Walk will start promptly at 12:30pm.
This gathering is FREE; make a $5- $10 donation to the Alchemical Nursery if you are able. You can become a recurring Patreon donor of the $1 for Permaculture Campaign, make a one-time donation through Network For Good, or bring good ‘ol cash money.
Four Things to Know:
1. This event is happening in place of the Alchemical Nursery’s annual plant sale. Though we will still have plants available, just a limited number of them. We are gifting the plants we will have available this year to those who want/need them. If you feel so inclined, we would accept reciprocation, but not required. We will be posting a list of what we will have available closer to the event date.
2. We invite you to *optionally* bring a dish to share at our brunch table. We’ll make a little something from the backyard abundance, and have water and our homemade shrubs and syrups for drinks. Linger & socialize as you like :>)
3. This is an all weather event, unless an extreme forecast is posted and we choose to cancel. We will post cancellation on our social media pages, and via email and text message, make sure we have your contact info on hand. So dress for the weather, bring an umbrella if light rain is predicted.
4. You’ll also have a chance at our community table to learn more about our residents’ and members’ other initiatives including the Community Apothecary, the Bicycle Depot, and Permaculture Forest Garden education and practice opportunities, Singing Solutions, Syracuse Herbal Study Group, etc. Bring your materials to lay out too.
