Class Learning Implemented at Home...


Raised Bed

Raised bed built at home.

On March 1st, a class was held on how to build raised beds. One of the participants, Sally Richard, took what she learned and put it into action by building a raised bed of her own.  Way to go, Sally :)



Peas Germinating

Alaska Peas germinating in moist paper towels inside vented ziploc.

Here is another example of how one of our HOH participants implemented at home (here shown in photo, April 23rd), what they learned previously at Spring Vegetable Gardening Class (April 12th).  This photo was submitted anonymously.

Happy Gardening!
