We are about halfway through our Garden Workshop series, with four workshops to go! Learn about how to get control of those pesky weeds and bugs, how to amend your soil to get maximum harvests of vegetables and blooms, how to set up and maintain your own irrigation system, and how to get control of the rodents before they overtake your gardens and chicken coops. Purchase your tickets here before we fill up!
With planting season on the horizon, weeds are already sprouting, the soil will be drying out soon, and pests are gearing up for the warmer weather ahead. Here are the remaining workshops that will set you and your garden up for success this season:
