This Saturday, our staff sustainability coach who has served as the organic gardener and cook at the Zen Monastery Peace Center is teaching a workshop for all of us who want to learn how to grow our own food.
Rising food prices and tough economic times are just two more reasons to start tending your own veggies. Add to that keeping diverse seed varieties around, nourishing the soil, the joy of digging in the dirt (which studies show increases happiness and improves immunity), and enjoying delicious, organic produce and the benefits certainly abound.
The workshop will cover how to:
*create nutrient-rich soil
*build beautiful vegetable beds
*save water and energy
*utilize companion planting and crop rotation
*control pests
