Spend 8 days at Belle Mare Farm in Willamina, Oregon, USA with Zach Weiss and our workshop team learning practical, hands-on techniques for terraforming to rejuvenate landscapes and ecosystem health. These techniques provide resilience to drought, flood, fire, and a myriad of ecological and environmental benefits. This learning intensive takes place in the middle of an active month-long project, so you can witness a real earthworks project unfold in real time. The whole process will be recorded and shared during the intensive, so you can experience the whole process from start to finish. The scope for this project entails the installation of a pond, terraces, and assessing or tapping a spring.
