A traditional view is that the gardening season in the upper Midwest runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day, but there is so much more time where we can be working the garden and harvesting fresh veggies. In this class we will tend to the spring-planted vegetables - weeding, harvesting, and flipping beds to plant summer crops. We will prepare soil to plant summer crops. While we are working in the garden, you can expect to learn from your instructor Sam about soil health, tillage, managing weeds, choosing varieties and planning your garden. While we’re working you can also chat with Sam about your own garden questions and practices. You will also learn from Sam’s extensive garden tool collection - weeders, seeders, and more.
