Description:
During this interactive introductory course, taste and examine different samples of fresh home grown veggies such as beans, peas, carrots and beets while we explore best practices for a successful organic garden. Learn about interesting seed varieties, soil improvement, harvest techniques and timing, organic growing methods that deter pests, as well as water-wise choices that can survive dry summers. We’ll also spend ample time at VanDusen’s own vegetable garden to see what’s growing, and help inspire your gardening plans for next season.
