Event Description
Want to grow food but you live in an apartment? In this course we will cover the techniques and challenges specific to gardening indoors and on balconies in containers. We'll look at soil, fertilizing organically, watering, types of containers, different sun orientations and of course, what to grow.
Offered as part of the Village Vancouver Transition School as part of Langara College's Sustainable Communities Summer School.
