Learn the principles behind syntropic agroforestry—a regenerative growing method that works with natural succession to create abundant, resilient food systems. This workshop combines theory with hands-on practice as we maintain and develop the syntropic system here at the SLC.
You’ll gain an understanding of how syntropics mimic natural forest growth, support soil health, and increase biodiversity, and you’ll have the chance to put these ideas into action right here on site. Perfect for gardeners, growers, and anyone curious about future-friendly farming.

💚Tutor bio: Golden Bay local Saci Reilly-Jasper first discovered Syntropic Agroforestry while volunteering in Brazil, igniting her passion to learn more. Since then, she has continued studying, experimenting, and sharing this regenerative way of growing food.
Here at the SLC, Saci has also helped create our own fledgling syntropic food forest on site, offering the community a living model to learn from. She has also run workshops that inspire others to see how this abundant, regenerative system can be applied in their own gardens and landscapes. Join Saci to explore the principles of syntropic food forests and discover how you can begin investing in your land’s abundance and diversity.
