In this fascinating introductory class, Lyon Arboretum horticulturalist Gerrit Evensen will cover the concepts and practices of agroforestry. Agroforestry: What is it? Why do it? How does it work? Relationships to the Hawaiian agricultural complex and the ahupua’a system. Basics of ecology and its relation to agroforestry, highlighting the concept of ‘ecosystem services’.

Is it possible to practice agroforestry on small amounts of land (esp. the small postage stamp yards of most Hawaii citizens)? Yes it is! Learn how! Examples of interesting agroforestry projects…. notably the Samboja Lestari project by Willie Smits in Borneo, Indonesia.

Instructor: Gerrit Evensen
Class Fee: $20.
