Learn why February fertilizing matters and how feeding now builds stronger, healthier plants for the season ahead.
About this Event

February is a key moment in the Bay Area garden—what you do now sets the tone for the entire growing season. In this class, you’ll learn why late-winter fertilizing helps plants wake up stronger, develop healthier root systems, and better resist pests and disease as spring approaches.

We’ll cover fertilizer basics in a simple, practical way, including a brief overview of the difference between organic and synthetic fertilizers, with the emphasis on organic feeding practices that build healthier soil over time. You’ll learn which plants benefit from early feeding, which don’t need it yet, and why timing matters just as much as the fertilizer you choose.

This class also explains why we recommend organic fertilizers, such as E.B. Stone and True Organics, for Bay Area gardens—supporting soil health, steady growth, and long-term plant success. Clear guidance, no guesswork, and no complicated charts—just the essentials to help your garden start strong.
