About this Event

One of the many benefits of our climate is being able to garden year round. Fall/Winter is a great time to garden. This class will go over some techniques on how to transition to your fall garden to prepare the soil for next season and what edible crops you can grow now. Topics that will be covered:

  • soil health with a focus on raised beds
  • sheet mulching for annual vegetables
  • adding compost
  • crop rotation
  • fall cover crops to plant, edible crops
  • cover crop planting demonstration

**Free cover crop seeds will be provided while supplies last

This is a Solano Gardens program class that is funded by Republic Services
