2 pm – 3:30 Advanced Bee care with Al Cobbin
The new bee keeper will want to keep improving their knowledge. Master Bee Keeper Al will discuss swarming, disease issues, comb or chunk honey, granulation and seasonal preparations and more. $25.M

We often end up stewarding land with fewer basic skills than we thought. This weekend was designed to cover some first steps in land analysis, plant propagation, plant maintenance, simple framing, making the most of a chicken and more! Stay tuned for more of these summer and fall courses!

Friday July 9 Chickens can be vital to the sustainable farm as they quickly return our kitchen waste back into food, and their manure is a rich source of nitrogen for our sandy soil. We will learn chicken care later this summer, and for now, will learn gentle dispatch of these valuable creatures, and then how to maximize every bit

4:30 – 5:30 Gentle Butchering (instructor TBA)
Sometimes we have to put a chicken out of its misery after a dog attack, or we may be culling an assertive rooster. Knowing how to do the deed with the least distress to the animal is crucial. And there is now an opportunity to analyse the organs to assess flock health, or to prepare the animal for the table. ($20)

Introducing - Chicken from Beak to Cheek with Ian Lai
We will huddle around the picnic table for outdoor cooking of the following:

5:30 onwards Part one - From block to board.

Hi, all -

Still a few spaces left in the Wild Weekend May 8 and 9th at Roberts Creek…register soon! Meanwhile, back at the ranch …I’m looking forward to our next weekend of workshops coming on May 14 & 15. Take one workshop or take them all. Looking forward to hearing from you, Robin

May 14/15/16 Roberts Creek - Bush Farming

New farmers are still seeking bushland to cultivate, without having any real experience in clearing land or making design decisions. This weekend offers basic skills often overlooked but necessary. Take the time to learn some unspoken laws, have some fun with rocket stoves, network with others, meet mentors and to Unhook with Peter Light.

Friday, May 14

6:30 – 8:30 pm- Creating Dimension lumber with the Mini Mill with Rob Corlett

It is hugely satisfying to create a stack of lumber from logs on your own property. Rob will show you finished products from his mill, and how to analyse a log for best use. He will guide you through safe use of the mill, proper stacking techniques and maintenance of the mill and chain saw. $25

Saturday, May 15

9:30 – 11:00 Woodlot Selection with Rob Corlett

Someday we will have to make decisions on how to “manage” a small woodlot for maximum yield. Rob will talk to us about light, spacing, disease, preservation of wildlife trees, watching property margins, and how to fall small trees so that we end up with the best spacing for firewood. $25

11:15 – 12:30 Post Setting with Rolef Ohlroggen

Whether keeping food competitors out or keeping animals in, we need fences. Many skills get learned the hard way. Most of us will inherit old fences or want to set new ones, and the proper setting of a post is an important art in the skill set of bush living. Rolef will show us how to interpret failure of old posts, how to choose new ones for the job, how to set in soil, how to save an old post using metal spikes. $25.

1:30 - 3:00 - A Farm is Born with Robin Wheeler

From logged forest to planet-friendly multiuse property, Robin will describe the steps she took to map the big picture - decide on a well type, position sheds, create fencing, bring in “recycled” housing and begin the gardens – all part time and on a shoe-string. $25

3:30 – 5:30 - TBA

6:00 pm - Shared dinner – contribute, or help clean up.

Sunday, May 16

9:30 – 11:00 Creating a Bush Market Farm with Alain Bergeron Off site – directions provided on registration.

Alain bought cleared land in the forest and spent months gathering seaweed, coffee grounds and leaves to improve the soil. He dug an irrigation pond, rigged up a propane shower and raised his family in a bus while building up his market farm that now produces hundreds of pounds of food a year. $25

11:30 am to 1 pm Rocket Stove Workshop ~ build your own camp stove! With Nadi Fleschhut

Understanding the basics of fuel-efficient, low-emission stove design. In this workshop we will explore the basic concepts of fuel-efficient stove design by building a zero-cost wood burning portable camping stove made from recycled cans. We will study the “rocket elbow” design of Dr. Larry Winiarski, and learn about the main principles that all rocket stoves employ to create the best circumstances for a high-efficiency wood burn that minimizes pollution and increases heat transfer. I’ll also introduce the concept of the “hay-box” as a complementary tool to minimize energy use by allowing the food to ‘cook itself’. You will go home from this workshop with your own little camp stove with which to impress your friends, and a good introduction to the concepts of fuel-efficiency. Please bring work gloves (as we’ll be working with snips and tin cans), tin snips if you have them, a notebook, and your joy of learning.

1:30 to 3:30: How to Unhook with Peter Light (off site – 2692 Highway 101)

How to stop doing what you don’t want to be doing and start doing what you do what to be doing. A discussion group tailored to the needs of each participant exploring what it means to disengage from the dominate paradigm traps of the mother culture by turning on, tuning in, and dropping out. Based on the life experience of the instructor and feed-back from course members. Oriented around permaculture.

Sunday afternoon: 4:00 - 6:00: A tour of the instructors developing permaculture, showing, step by step how he is reclaiming two and a half acres of blackberry with no machinery and no digging; developing and executing a permaculture design; and planting and tending it, all with a minimum of labour and a maximum of enjoyment. But one does have to work! We’re not kidding around here! And as spring rockets into growth, ten and twelve hour days were the rewarding price of self-sufficiency and freedom, month after month.  It is how one lives a day if one is a permaculture homesteader. Now, at 67, the instructor is trying to get it down to 2-8 hours a day. Sliding scale - $30 - $45.

A prerequisite for each course it to read the segment of the instructor’s autobiographical sketch to be found at http://slas.ca/peter-light/

The Nutritious Nettle Learning Party!

….with nettle-gatherer and home medicine-maker Keira McPhee

Wednesday, April 7^th, 1-2:30 pm

I love plants, but I don’t know my nettles very well. They like to live in sunny, wet places, and the sun can be scarce in Lynn Valley. It’s time for a trek over into the wilds of Burnaby to learn about and harvest some nettles! I’m eager to collect and learn about the uses of these delicious and nutritious plants. We will share our tips and tricks for harvesting and preparing nettles. Tricia

Children are welcome!

Our guide for the day: Keira McPhee

“I am a non-denominational kitchen witch kind of herbalist who is most devoted to my nourishing weeds- those plants that provide abundant food and medicine right outside my door.  These past couple of years I’ve grown and prepared enough teas to last me throughout the year from my urban garden and from foraging. My son and I drink a LOT of tea. (My partner less so but he digs the herbal ice teas in summer.)

I learn first and foremost from the plants that grow abundantly about me, in my garden, in my neighbourhood and in the forests close to the city, as well as from the  herbalists and plant freaks I encounter through learning parties.  But nettles first  came to me in a book I’ve been rereading and consulting for 15 years,  Susun Weed’s “Healing Wise” (google her, she’s got a mammoth and very helpful shaggy garden of a website.)   Nettles called, and I started buying them in bulk. Nettle and raspberry leaf tea was my everyday drink while I was pregnant and nursing.  Now I forage for nettles every spring and because I am an insane gardener, even grow them in my backyard. They are my favourite all-round spring nourishing food/medicine and I look forward to sharing them with you.”

Location: Near Burnaby Lake. Address will be emailed to registered participants 3 days before the learning party.

Cost: $10.

Thanks to Tree Brewing Co., (and Michelle!) the Homebrew Learning Party will be a tasting party too. Tree has   generously donated some mixed flats of beer to try out as we learn to brew ourselves.   John, our guide for the night will help us match some of our favourite types of beer to various recipes,  that can all be sourced at Dan’s Homebrewing.  While I’m eager to add brewing to my fermenting repertoire  I know I will be  patronizing BC’s microbreweries (and Czech pilsners) in the future too.

I won’t hazard a guess at how many batches it will take before I feel ready to take the next step: brewing with herbs I grow. It just feels like a good idea to begin with what I know I like- hops, barley malt, water & yeast as laid down in the Bavarian Purity Laws of 1516.  But rules about what to eat, drink or medicate annoy me and instantly provoke my inner 15 year old hoser-punk. So I’m already pondering beer recipes that rebel and dreaming about future learning parties.

I know this is an interest of Mary and Steve, our homebrew party hosts as well. It just seems to follow from growing food in a gentle way- you produce an abundance of stuff you intended and an abundance that just shows up. It’s amazing how many of the uninvited plants are nourishing in some way- especially if fermented!

Beermaking is definitely a tradition I want to be inducted into by a knowledgeable guide and in good company. I’m glad to know that I’ll have Mary and Steve and potentially some folks from the learning party to compare notes with afterwards.  Sometimes a 2 minute conversation or a targeted question to a friendly person can bolster my confidence to just try stuff out.  So I’m excited to see familiar names registered for the learning party, including folks from past learning parties, from friends I didn’t know were yearning to brew, and from folks I’ve just met in other contexts (like the Potato Salad crew- our new potato growing co-op, also loosely affiliated with the hodge-podge of grassroots projects that is the Sustainable Living Arts School.)

There are still a few spots available for this learning party which starts next Monday, March 29 and continues on Monday, April 12 for bottling. Come join the learning crew if you can- we’d love to have you!

You are warmly invited to another hands-on Sustainable Living Arts School Learning Party….

The Home-brew Learning Party!

….with beermeister John Margetts

This is a 2-part learning party.

Part 1 Brewing: Monday, March 29 from 7-9:30

Part 2 Bottling: Monday, April 12 from 7-9:30

This one gives me great delight. As a dedicated and nearly life long beer enthusiast (my mom tells me I liked the taste right away) I am very excited to add this craft to my repertoire of the sustainable living arts. This 2-part learning party series will give us all the basics to brew our first batch of beer at home. Please come with your favourite snack to share with beer. Samples of beer provided! Looking forward to seeing you there, Keira

Our guide for the day: John Margetts
“I first pitched some yeast into a beer kit a little more than twenty years ago but I really started making beer about 11 years ago. That was when I first met Dan (of Dan’s Homebrewing Supplies) and he taught me how to use a mash tun and the value of using fresh hops.”

There are so many reasons to brew your own beer: it’s cheaper, it’s tastier, it’s often better for you (unfiltered, unpasteurized) and has real food value, it’s less predictable (i.e., more interesting), it’s educational and empowering to do it yourself. It’s one step in the right direction- avoiding mindless consumerism. The old saying about chopping your own firewood applies: it warms you twice, and it’s fun.

Teachers provide some guidance, but the real learning comes from the student her/himself and their experiences. I think the best way to learn how to do something is by working with someone with experience and then just doing it and learning from your successes and failures both.” John Margetts

Location: - Close to Main and 23rd. Address will be emailed to registered participants 3 days before the learning party.

Cost: $40 You’ll go home with approx. 2 litres of our homebrew after the bottling party.

A huge thank-you to our sponsor for this learning party- Dan’s Homebrewing Supplies! We highly recommend Dan’s for all your homebrew supplies. Find them at 692 East Hastings.
