Garvan workshop on organic vegetable gardening

Gardening 101 Workshop: "Organic Vegetable Gardening: Japanese Style"
March 19
9:30 a.m. – 12 p.m. - Magnolia Room

Do you like the healthy, fresh taste of organic vegetables, but have limited space for both beds and composting materials? Then this is the workshop for you. Learn to compost and grow in the same bed. The Japanese, with limited land for gardening, have perfected a simple, effective method for growing intensively in small spaces. We can learn from them, and it works! We will identify companion plants that are "good neighbors". They attract beneficial insects and limit aphids and red spider. Your vegetables will prosper, and produce without costly insecticides. Handout materials and demo items will make it easy to transfer the workshop experience to your garden. Don't miss this one if you're partial to the best-tasting vegetables ever!

Admission: free to GWG members & regular admission for non-members. Pre-registration is required. Please call 501-262-9300 to register. Space is limited.
