Natural vegetable gardening for beginners
Local natural gardener Sean Jordan will offer a free class, “Natural Vegetable Gardening for Beginners,” on Saturday, February 23, at 2 pm at the co-op. The
class will cover all the basics for beginners who want to start their gardens off
right, including:
• The garden calendar: what to do when
• The garden site: where and how much space
• Seeds and plants: reading catalogs, finding sources
• Tools and equipment: what you really need
• Schools of thought: which approach is appropriate |
|
|
Please call ahead to sign up, as space is limited: 343-5652. Sean, who works at Grandin Gardens, has been gardening for 45 years. He says he believes in the spiritual and redemptive qualities of compost and he once went 8 months eating only things he had raised. This is sure to launch you on a successful gardening season! |
