About this Event
In step with the growing season, beginner gardeners are invited to gain hands-on learning experiences at the learning garden and greenhouse. In Spring unfurling, we’ll cover fundamental principles and practices of growing plants for specific urban green spaces, preparing soil, designing a garden suitable for each gardener’s specific needs, regenerative and climate-wise gardening, starting seeds, proper planting techniques, and basic plant care. Gardeners in this course will contribute to collective beds in our learning garden as well as tend seedlings to take to their own urban green spaces.
Prerequisite(s): There are no prerequisites. This class is open to all levels, designed specifically for individuals who are new to gardening or have some experience but who have lacked a consistent place to grow beyond foundations.
Required Texts and Resources: No texts are required. Optional supplemental readings will be given for each class.
Attendance Policy: Classes will build off eachother and follow the growing season. To assure students are getting the best experience we encourage you to come to each class.
Registration: Each track is limited to 12 participants per session. We ask that you kindly register prior the start of the cohort. Urban Gardening 101 is most suited for adults, and we kindly ask participants with children to consider one of our other weekly free family-friendly programs instead.
