June 4, 2010 - 10:00am - 2:00pm
In this second workshop in the Grow Your Own series (see above) we will be in the garden, understanding the care of the soil as the foundation of organic growing. We'll look at how to successfully transplant and direct seed, as well as discuss plant health, weed control, and how to plan for seasonal succession planting. We'll talk about the advantages of raised beds, and ways to attract pollinators and beneficial insects to the vegetable garden. As always, this class will be tailored to the particular needs and questions of those in the class. Limited to 8 people so sign up early!
