We begin with a bug hunt then continue with a discussion of environmentally-friendly ways to control pests and diseases\, as-well-as different composting systems and a hands-on activity. Participants will also learn all about watering\, from the basics of watering seeds and transplants to water conservation.\n\nParticipants also take home a 45-page manual produced by SFC and designed specifically for Central Texas food growers.\n\n-Class participants must be 16 and older.
