Eco Agriculture or Permaculture

Grow Food Grow Dunoon is a project of Dunoon Community Development Trust. They are a group of people who came together because they wanted to grow their own food, not in a private allotment or garden, but as a team. The project runs courses in seed propagation, planting, composting and harvesting. They are also planning courses on natural bee-keeping, food preserving, tree planting and more.

This new community garden was established in early 2024 on site of an old garden, established on derelict land once occupied by housing. Thisd garden includes raised beds (including wheelchair accessible ones), tea shed, toolstore, herb and bee nectar/pollen plantings, wildflower meadows, bug hotel, compost heaps, hedge. Volunteers welcome. Some beds managed by local groups, others by volunteers. including local schools and nurseries, mental health groups and other community groups.

This is an "edible food forest" - a unique food growing spot! Lots of experience and produce come from this site! It's epic! See more about the resources shared at bronxriver.org/about/foodway (photo is from this website). Lots to learn from here - so inspiring!! 

I'm not a member but I am welcome to join the weekly potluck, which is a wonderful tradition! So many people are fed by this prolific garden. It's kind to all, including many recent newcomers seeking refuge from the shelter system. I especially like the family-oriented design and policies, and have heard that school groups have plots there too. With fruit trees planted across the street and rows and rows and rows of veggies, this garden has it all!

Solstice Family Farm is located on 33 acres on the beautiful Olympic Peninsula. We are a homestead style farm, where we not only grow vegetables, fruit, eggs and meat for market, but obtain much of what we need right from the land. We teach a variety of growing techniques: orcharding, pasture management, animal husbandry, carpentry and mechanical skills, farm equipment operation, pest management and a long list of other skills needed on a farm. It's safe to say that our farm has lots to keep you moving!

Raised beds with vegetable gardens to provide food and habitat for pollinator species.
