Learn what it takes to get a community garden started. Open to groups, individuals, educators, and anyone interested in gardening with others. The six-session course combines in-depth and hands-on gardening experience with topics such as basic horticulture, recruiting and keeping volunteers, assessing and finding resources in your neighborhood, planting and garden maintenance, finding a site, getting permission, and forming partnerships. At the last session, we will help to build a community garden at one of the participating group’s site.

The session meets Wednesdays, March 16 to May 4 from 5:30-8:30 pm, as well as an optional tour on Saturday, April 16 from 10:00 am-1:00 pm.
