Enjoy the taste of freshly grown veggies from your garden this coming spring! Marpole Oakridge Neighbourhood Food Network presents a workshop with Rhiannon Johnson covering the basics of planning, and then preparing and starting a food garden come Spring. You'll learn how to plan and prepare your garden space, as well as some simple techniques for starting plants indoors and in the garden, tailored to your space. We'll have a community seed library present - pick up some free seeds for your garden, or swap or donate seeds.
