Virtual POPCORE 4: Orchard & Food Forest Design Workshop

Join us for the 4th session of our 2022 POPCORE urban orchardist training course. Led by Philadelphia Orchard Project staff, this workshop will focus on practical steps for design of urban orchards and food forests, including plant selection, spacing, layout, community engagement, and more.

– Orchard & Food Forest Design Process
– Plant Selection, Spacing, and Layout
– Strategies for Community Engagement

POPCORE combines many elements of orchard stewardship, ecosystem design, and food uses that POP has learned over the past 15 years. This four part series is intended to grow the knowledge, skillset, and self-reliance of our community orchard partners and volunteers, resulting in happier, healthier, and more productive community orchards.

Those completing all four classes over any two year period will receive POPCORE Urban Orchardist Certification!
