Surviving the Dry Workshop (Central Queensland Conditions)
About
🌿 Surviving the Dry Workshop (Food Forests for Central Queensland) 🌿Heat, wind & water solutions for building resilient food forests in harsh climates.
Most gardens struggle in CQ not because of poor effort—but because they’re not designed for heat, wind, and water stress.
This workshop shows you how to design food forest systems that work with these elements, instead of pushing against them year after year.
đź“… Saturday 30th May
⏰ 8:30am – 11:30am
đź“Ť Garden on Glenora, Cawarral
đź’° $70 per person
(Includes workshop guide + refreshments)
🌳 What this workshop is about
We focus on building food forest systems that hold up in extreme conditions:
• Designing layouts that reduce heat stress and moisture loss
• Using trees, shrubs, and groundcovers to manage wind and create microclimates
• Soil building methods that improve water retention over time
• Mulch systems that protect against evaporation and heat damage
• Selecting resilient perennial food plants suited to CQ conditions
• Creating shelter systems that stabilise young food forests
🌱 Who this is for
This workshop is for you if:
• Your garden suffers in heat, wind, or dry spells
• You want to build a food forest that actually survives CQ conditions
• You’re moving away from high-input vegetable gardening
• You want long-term resilience, not short-term fixes
• You’re ready to design systems instead of chasing problems
🧠What to expect
This is a practical workshop focused on real Central Queensland conditions. We break down how to design for survival first—then productivity follows naturally.
No fluff. Just grounded, relevant strategies for heat, wind, and water management.
🌿 Ready to design for survival, not struggle?
If you’re ready to build a food forest that can handle CQ’s extremes, this is where it starts.
