Summer Vegetable Gardening

This is an all day, intensive seminar on starting and tending a summer vegetable garden.  Participants sow and take home two full flats of summer vegetables (a $52 value).  Topics covered: bed preparation, fertilizing, amending, proper sow and transplant dates for specific crops, discussion of over 20 different warm-weather veggies to grow, warmth, light, and climate needs, companion planting, pest and disease control, on-line preferred discount vendors of gardening supplies and seeds.

Farmer Cynthia Sandberg takes you out into her garden and shows you how.  See the pests in person, the composting techniques, bed preparation - hands on and up close.

This workshop is a great basis for either someone new to gardening, or someone who just wants to ramp up their yield and over-all garden vitality.
