Educational Series

Berthoud Local aims to extend educational opportunities to the community.  Workshop class topics include local food production, food preservation, gardening skills and many other topics related to food independence. In past years, we have hosted workshops and events like:

• Understanding soil and composting

• Raising backyard chickens

• Basics of Beekeeping

• Lasagna Gardening

• Fermentation Basics - kombucha and sourdough

• Herbal Defense - the medicinal powers of herbs

• Xeriscaping 

• Homemade Salt Scrubs

• and so much more!

We are always open to more ideas, and would love your help in continuing to expand our education program!  

Our Educational Series gives instructors a venue to share their knowledge and promote skills for people to make/do/learn more about their local and immediate environment. Instructors are compensated. To submit a class proposal, please fill out the form below.
