StartOrganic is holding its first community produce-share in Almaden Valley. StartOrganic will be passing out a gamut of homegrown produce from its own network of local gardens. You can also get information about how you can start or expand your own organic garden at home.
Gardening year round is easy and rewarding in our mild climate here in Almaden Valley. Learn from Master Gardeners of Santa Clara County how to have a successful, environmentally responsible food garden that provides delicious vegetables and herbs every month of the year.
This course stresses sustainable gardening practices such as mulching, efficient watering methods, on-site composting, integrated pest management, and use of organic fertilizers and soil amendments.
This six-week course is taught by Bette Lloyd, Master Gardener. The class meets at the Almaden Community Center on Saturdays, January 22 – February 26, 2011, from 10am-12pm. Register online or by calling 408-268-1133. The price is $70 per person. [EVENT IS CLOSED]
