Description

Not sure you have enough space for a garden? You don’t need a yard to grow your own food! Get creative with container gardening and you can grow greens, herbs, blueberries, and even hot peppers. Container gardening is great for beginners, apartment dwellers and anyone with challenging soil.

In this class you will learn about:

  • Benefits of growing in containers
  • Choosing soil, containers and location for your container garden
  • Considerations for growing herbs, greens, small fruits and summer vegetables
  • Ongoing maintenance of your container garden

This virtual class features a live, interactive lecture with slide show, virtual garden tour and time for questions and answers with the instructor. A detailed outline with recommended resources will also be provided.
