Vegetable Gardening In Small Spaces

Do you want to garden but live in an apartment or a house with little or no yard? Worry not! Instead, join Grow Local for a lesson in the nuanced art of container gardening.Topics include the benefits and challenges of container gardening, types of containers, space requirements for different plants, container garden soil mixes, and how to properly water and feed your container gardens. Participants will also learn how to maximize their gardening space by using techniques such as companion planting, vertical gardening and square foot gardening, and they will have the opportunity to make a homemade batch of potting soil.
