DEEP ROOTS: COMPOSTING – MICROBIAL MAGIC
April 25, 2015 10am – 12:30pm
The microbial world is too small to see with the human eye, but what microbes can do for our gardens, our food, and our health is larger than life! Join Grow Local and The Happy Kitchen in a two-part series all about microbes! In the GL “Composting – Microbial Magic” class, get your hands dirty in the garden while learning the basics of compost – what it is, what it’s made of (microbes!), how to make it, and how to use it. In the THK “Brewing Probiotic Beverages” class, you will learn how to make safe, healthy, and delicious beverages full of beneficial bacteria and microorganisms. Learn about kombucha and other fizzy, fruity probiotic drinks. We will demonstrate each recipe from start to finish, so you will leave class understanding all the stages and how to make them at home.
Grow Local gardening classes are all about learning solid gardening skills alongside local gardening experts. We want to build community, have fun, witness the magic in nature, make growing your own food easy, and be part of something bigger – your food system! Proceeds from our for-fee classes support free gardening classes and resources offered to individuals and families in need.
Course fee is $20.
Registration is capped at 25. Please register to attend this course below.
