The Orchard Project is now running an onine level 2 Award in Forest Gardening using Martin Crawford's materials, loads of quizzes, homework and a series of zoom tutorials. The second iteration is being run by our Scottish office, details here - https://www.theorchardproject.org.uk/events/award-in-forest-gardening/ This is the only accredited forest garden training and our regulator is Crossfields Institute. I would like to make a blended version of it in future.

In addition, we are running some face to face weekends of training in London. I'm doing the second one and I get people to design a fg rather than just an orchard:

Orchard intro, pests and diseases - https://www.theorchardproject.org.uk/events/weekend-course-series-orchard-foundations/

Survey and Design - https://www.theorchardproject.org.uk/events/weekend-course-series-orchard-survey-and-design/

Soil and Maintenance - https://www.theorchardproject.org.uk/events/weekend-course-series-resilient-healthy-orchards/

Hope everyone is well.
