Come learn how to put your vegetable garden to bed for the winter and plant your own garlic in this hands-on workshop at our demo garden!
About this Event

Our gardens have been working hard to produce for us all through the summer and it's time to give them a rest!

Come to this hands-on workshop at our Demonstration Garden and learn about the steps you should take to winterize your vegetable garden and protect your soil during the cold wet months ahead. And while it's too late for planting vegetable starts or seeds for a harvest this year, it's the perfect time for planting garlic bulbs that will be harvestable in early summer next year!

During this workshop we will discuss:

- Which crops should be removed/left in the garden for Fall

- How to use straw mulch to protect your soil from compaction/erosion during winter weather

- The benefits and drawbacks of using cover crops in your home garden

- Different types of garlic and how to plant them for a successful harvest

- What to do in late winter to prepare your soil for spring planting

Everyone who attends the garden winterization workshop will leave with their own garlic for planting at home!

All classes at the Demonstration Garden are FREE and All Are Welcome!

If you have the means to add a donation, your contribution will go directly to local non-profits dedicated to supporting home vegetable gardeners, food access and food security in our community.
