(Photo: Business Wire)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nTo oversee its new <i>Planting Seeds<\/i> program, WorldMark enlisted the expertise of master regenerative urban farmer Daniel Campbell, owner and operator of Portland\u2019s PDX Farm, who installed a demo garden on the WorldMark Portland Waterfront Park outdoor patio. Campbell will use the edible garden during his monthly workshop series, and any food procured will be donated back to 14 local families who are part of PDX Farm, a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAccess to healthy, organic food doesn\u2019t have to cost a fortune \u2013 and, through the application of permaculture principles, it\u2019s probably a lot closer than you might think,\u201d said Daniel Campbell, WorldMark\u2019s Urban Farming Educator. \u201cTeaming up with WorldMark, I look forward to teaching travelers how to follow nature\u2019s lead and use whatever space they have at home to grow their own food, just like we\u2019re doing on this resort patio in the heart of downtown Portland.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nResort guests who participate in Campbell\u2019s free monthly workshops will learn everything from the basics of soil health, to DIY fruit pruning and pickling, to how to choose the right vegetable species for your climate. Based on participant experience levels, Campbell will also dive into expert topics to refine existing home practices, such as:\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nNitrogen: All plants need nitrogen, some more than others, but only certain plants make it. Learn the science behind these \u201cnitrogen fixer\u201d plants and how they can boost your soil\u2019s nitrogen levels for a more robust urban garden.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nBiochar: A hot topic among agriculturalists and home gardeners, biochar is one of the most effective ways to lock carbon into your soil. Learn why people are flocking to this agricultural practice, why it\u2019s important for soil regeneration and how you can make it yourself.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li>\nBee Hotel: You don\u2019t need much land at all to create your very own bee hotel on your back porch or in your garden. Learn the basics of native bee keeping and why when we say, \u201cSave the bees,\u201d we mean <i>native<\/i> bees.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\nIn a recent survey conducted by WorldMark, nearly 80% of American travelers report that sustainability is an important part of their travel experience.

He has worked on organic farms in Thailand and designed and managed a permaculture farm on Bainbridge Island. He achieved his Masters of Sustainability from Portland State University, as well as a master\u2019s degree in gardening from Oregon State University. Campbell is certified in permaculture design by Tryon Creek Farm, and for over a decade, he\u2019s owned and operated a sustainable landscape maintenance business, Neshamah\u2019s Garden, which evolved into PDX Farm. Today, PDX Farm operates as a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) farm; consisting of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation so that the farmland becomes, either legally or spiritually, the community&#8217;s farm, with the growers and consumers providing mutual support and sharing the risks and benefits. The farm currently serves approximately 14 families in the Portland area.\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=bwnews&amp;sty=20230403005052r1&amp;sid=flmnd&amp;distro=nx&amp;lang=en\" style=\"width:0;height:0\" \/><span class=\"bwct31415\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"mmgallerylink\"><span id=\"mmgallerylink-phrase\">View source version on businesswire.com: <\/span><span id=\"mmgallerylink-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20230403005052\/en\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20230403005052\/en\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\nMelissa Landy<br \/>\n<br \/>(407) 626-3830<br \/>\n<br \/><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"mailto:Media@wyn.com\">Media@wyn.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>KEYWORDS:<\/b> United States North America Oregon<\/p>\n<p><b>INDUSTRY KEYWORDS:<\/b> Food\/Beverage Women Environment Retail Men Sustainability Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Environmental Health Consumer Professional Services Organic Food Agriculture Natural Resources Vacation Other Travel Climate Change Lodging Destinations Travel<\/p>\n<p><b>MEDIA:<\/b><\/p>\n<table cellpadding=\"3\" cellspacing=\"3\">\n<tr>\n<td><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"><b>Logo<\/b><\/font><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20230403005052\/en\/1405959\/3\/worldmark-logo-midnight-rgb.jpg\" alt=\"Logo\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"><\/font><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\"><b>Photo<\/b><\/font><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20230403005052\/en\/1752356\/3\/Planting_Seeds_1.jpg\" alt=\"Photo\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\">Guests who participate in the free &#8220;Planting Seeds&#8221; monthly workshop series will be empowered to live more holistically and reduce waste by embracing their surrounding ecosystems to grow their own food, at scale \u2013 no matter where it is they call home.
