Event Description


Regenerate Whatcom, Whatcom Permaculture & Vivaculture Institute present a Permaculture walkabout in the Happy Valley neighborhood.

 
Come join as we visit 3 neighborhood Earth Repair Projects:

  • The Oasis Collective Home Food Forest Garden
  • The Back 40” WWU’s living water purification ponds andJeff’s Sequoia Forest
  • The Outback Farm” WWU’s Fairhaven Forest garden and permaculture plantings

Friday July 31st, 2026 5-7pm

Meet behind Buchanan Towers Dorm
off of Bill McDonald Parkway and 25th St., South Bellingham.

We will begin our tour walking through WWU’s “Regional Ponds” natural treatment project to clean their parking lot run-off stormwater. We can also witness the transformation of these public lands towards a Sequoia giganteum climax forest.

We will then visit the Oasis Food Forest Garden. This small urban yard of a collective living home has been tended by a variety of community permaculturalists and gardeners over 20 years. Come see a productive urban food forest and enjoy a locally harvested snack.

After that we will return to campus and visit the 50+ year old Outback forest garden, a maturing and evolving food forest.

The whole journey will be about a half mile leisurely walk. Meet other interested earth stewards and share ideas about making urban spaces more fertile and diverse.
