 Finally the time of year has arrived that we can get our hands in the dirt. You know fingernails full of dirt, earth caked on your hands.      Who needs gloves lets just get dirty.

It's not that I wasn't on the ball with our Gardening Workshops this year, it's simply that I didn't think the time would ever come that I could book a date and count on the weather. The time is now, so let's get right to it.

Class Date:    Sunday May 19th 
Time:              10:30 - 1:30
Lunch:            Please bring a bagged lunch with you
Class Fee:      $30.00

Many of you joined us last year and we discussed Straw Bale Gardening and Lasagna Gardening. We had a great day and the weather cooperated with lots of sun. This year we will turn to other gardening methods. Extending your seasons - Both getting an early start and keeping things growing into January or later with out any fancy equipment.  Weeds - No one enjoys pulling weeds, but it does not have to be a daunting task. We will show you how to avoid almost all of them. And eat the rest.  Tomatoes and Peppers - Every home garden needs at least a few of each. Why are the leaves turning yellow? What about all the little black spots on my tomato leaves. The bottoms are rotting, does this sound familiar? We will give you some easy, organic, free fixes for that problem Container Gardening - Even the smallest balcony can grow an amazing amount of food. Don't let limited space stop you from enjoying fresh food. Mulches and Row Covers - Each of these things can be your best friends in the garden Perennial Edibles - Imagine low maintenance plants that come back year after year. All you have to do is eat them. Sounds like the perfect garden  We will go through all of this and more. Bring with you any questions you may have as well as a note book and pen to take any notes.

At the end of our workshop we will take a walk through the green houses as well as have a tour of the farm for anyone interested.
