This gardening workshop will teach you everything you need to know to design and build a successful kitchen garden now and plant it in the spring. Fall and winter is the best time to methodically establish your garden patch. In the morning session, we will go over what needs to be done through this fall & coming winter to be ready to plant next March, including how to kill sod without poison, how to make growing beds, how to compost, etc.
In the afternoon, we will focus on plants with topics such as plant & cultivar selection of fruit, vegetable and herbs; sourcing; indoor & outdoor seed sowing; other propagation techniques; transplanting; growing, maintaining & harvesting.
