Join us for an afternoon experiential insightful tour of Inspiration Farm's perennial and natural systems including grains and orchards with special guest Larry Korn

Larry Korn lived and farmed with Mr. Fukuoka for two years in the mid-1970’s. He translated and edited Fukuoka’s The One-Straw Revolution. Larry traveled with Mr. Fukuoka and translated for him during his trips to the U.S. including the Pacific Northwest. Larry shares personal anecdotes about Mr. Fukuoka family and natural farming. He is also an educator, consultant, editor and author in the fields of permaculture, natural farming, sustainable landscaping and local food production.

Larry spent several years with Masanobu Fukuoka, Mr. Fukuoka developed a special no-till way of farming to demonstrate the practical value of his spiritual principles.
