Description

Spend the afternoon with John Bream -- certified horticulturist of the New York Botanical Garden -- as he welcomes you into the world of organic, self-sustained garden design.


Expect some lively conversation about his amazing garden and all things green (and a few that aren't -- including chickens, cashmere goats, a lovely horse named Justin, a sicilian donkey named peaches.) Maybe even a glass of lemonade.


John can share expertise on maximizing smaller properties to accomodate and sustain families and small farm animals, using a natural/ organic approach, the importance of self sustainability in the world today, planting and planning a sequential garden, composting, planning an orchard, gardening with raised beds, extending the growing year, and finally the Victory Garden!
