In this workshop, Fiona Buining (@ainslieurbanfarm) will introduce the Plant Health Pyramid, a concept which explains the root cause of plant pests and diseases. This conceptual model, developed by John Kempf, is based on the fact that healthy plants produce healthy soils and vice versa. Specifically, Fiona will be covering what plants need for photosynthesis and the production of proteins, lipids, and bioactive compounds.

Upon completion of this workshop you will understand how to grow plants that are resistant to pests and diseases and produce nutrient dense food, using regenerative practices.

After the workshop, morning tea will be served. If you would like to bring a plate to share, that would be greatly appreciated!
