Container Gardening Classes on Saturday

Are you curious about all this local food, gardening, and urban agriculture talk that’s been going around town? Do you not know where to start? Tomorrow is a great opportunity to get your hands dirty and your thumbs green. Rec’d via email:

Container gardening allows you to enjoy vegetables and herbs in areas where a traditional garden is awkward or impossible. Even with limited space in an urban apartment, you can grow fruits, vegetables and herbs just about anywhere.

Join Master Gardener Irene Reed for her ever-popular talk about the ins and outs of container gardening, then make a container garden of your own to take home! Container, TAGRO Potting Soil and vegetable starts will be provided … just bring your curiosity.
