Welcome to Edible Backyard!

Edible Backyard is a series of workshops run from Kath Irvine’s permaculture home garden.

Created to support you on your journey to becoming a food gardener, Kath will teach you how to design and run your own Edible Backyard.

A unique opportunity for hands on, organic learning from a working permaculture garden.

About Kath

Hi, my name is Kath Irvine.

I am passionate about growing food and creating edible backyards. My inspiration comes from the food gardeners of old and the study of permaculture.

After years of working in the community as the green gardener, and teaching permaculture design and edible gardening to schools and community groups - I ‘m looking forward to teaching you from my own garden.
