Description: Hands On Constructing the Home Fruit & Vegetable Garden,at Westbury Community Garden
A bountiful garden can feed you with nutritious fresh vegetables, offer beauty and insight into nature and increase the value of your home property. A fruit and vegetable garden is an investment in your health and in the aesthetic beauty of your outdoor space.
This class is outdoors and each step of the planning process will be demonstrated or explained, such as choosing your site, selecting the proper soil, relevant irrigation options, utilizing the best tools and materials you will need for success. You also will have an opportunity to visit a home garden.
Dress for getting dirty, wear closed toe shoes, bring a hat, sunscreen and water. We have a large sheltered area for teaching. Bench seating is available, limited number of chairs. Bring your own chair for more comfort. If you experience problems finding the location, call Gary on his cell 832-656-2819 for directions and assistance.
