ABOUT THE PRESENTER
The teacher for this class will be Kristofer Edler, with PermacultureFX. Edler has been practicing regenerative agriculture for 20+ years, and he has lived in multiple growing zones from the snowy winters of Northern Michigan to the extreme seasons of Kansas City. He was a founding teacher of a private school in Kansas City, which taught permaculture to K-12 students on an 18-acre property. As a business owner, his former wedding venue also practiced permaculture with community garden connection and compost production from post-event food waste. Currently, Edler is actively practicing and teaching permaculture in Central Florida and has a background in regenerative agriculture, syntropic systems, and silvo-pasture farm and pasture management. He is a certified instructor and was trained by Geoff Lawton (and other permaculture patriarchs), and is especially passionate about making permaculture principles palatable for those in suburban settings and enjoys finding ways to integrate sustainable practices into many diverse scenarios. Over the last few years, he conducted hundreds of property consultations across Florida to help new homesteaders get started on their land. All this to say – Edler is a nerdy dirt ninja with a passion for humans, feathered friends, and all things food forests.
