Enjoy this workshop presented by Village Vancouver. Want to grow food but don't have much room? In this course we'll cover the techniques and challenges specific to gardening in small spaces, both indoors and outdoors. We'll look at soil, fertilizing organically, watering, types of containers, different sun orientations and of course, what to grow in your space. VV will have a seed library present - if you come a little early you can get some free seeds for your garden or swap or donate some seeds. Instructor: Rhiannon Johnson.
