Event Description
An extremely important topic in organic gardening is soil health and fertility. Healthy soil is a vibrant community. Learn how to be an ally, not an enemy of your soil. We'll also cover some key techniques for promoting and protecting your annual and perennial food plants, as well as the ones that just look pretty, from disease and pests.
Instructor: Grant Watson is presenting three different workshops this winter/spring. Grant is a former organic farmer and has been teaching gardening to adults and children since 2003. He also operates an edible landscaping business.
