Organic gardening lessons — Free!

Posted by Siel in events, food, garden (Wednesday August 20, 2008 at 8:08 pm)

Can’t afford the organic gardening class at SMC? Then head over to the FREE Organic Gardening series offered by the Community Garden and the Environmental Change-Makers in Westchester!

Once every few weeks, the Environmental Change-Makers will help you tackle a new gardening challenge. If the fact that the events are held at a religious spot doesn’t bother you, you can take advantage of the upcoming lessons:

>> Aug. 23: Winter Vegetables. The cool season is one of enormous bounty in Southern California. Now is the time to plan it!

>> Sept. 13: Seed Saving. Learn how to save seed from vegetables.

>> Sept. 27: Organic Pest Control. Snails, slugs, aphids, cutworms — How do you keep these pests at bay without all those toxic chemicals?

All lessons happen from 9 - 10:30 am at the Community Garden at Holy Nativity Church, 6700 W. 83rd., Westchester in Los Angeles.

  1. Cool! I would be there if I lived close by. Now, the air fare would raise the prise substantially :)
