I have made some Spring video tours of the Crescent City Food Forest and Old Growth Edible Landscapes' HQ (our place), in part as promotion for my upcoming workshop series (https://permies.com/t/369940/Salvaging-Abundance-part-Community-Permaculture). Feel free to share. Things are in bloom and many helpers are all around the sites:

Wow! Great project Ben! How many people worked on that? And you're involving students? Awesome. I wondered what was in the greenhouse. Do you guys do your own start-ups of annuals?
Good luck!

We have had dozens of paid interns and volunteers, as well as several employees with varying versions of my old position. Most interns are Del Norte High or College of the Redwoods students. The green house is mainly for starting annuals, with a portion dedicated to warm weather crops grown in soil.
