Description

Now's the time to improve your soil for better garden yield! This joint Village Vancouver - West End Neighborhood Food Network Urban Garden Club workshop with Rhiannon Johnson is suitable for folks who have a gardening space, as well as for anyone who would like to start gardening. Learn how to build your soil for a healthy, vibrant veggie garden. Find out how vigorous your soil is and what to add to it to improve its vitality! If you have a garden, you're invited to bring a CLEAR 1 liter container (with a lid) with a couple of cups of
your garden soil, for some simple tests to learn how to improve it with natural fertilizers, soil amendments, and gardening techniques. We'll have a community seed library present - pick up some free seeds, swap or donate seeds. Fee includes testing materials. Free for Seniors (50 and over, $5 materials cost only).
