Program Description

Event Details

In 1945, 40% of all US produce was grown in two million home gardens across the country. The WW2-era Victory Garden movement showed millions of Americans that maintaining a highly productive home garden in a small space was possible, and even enjoyable. 

In this program, we'll discuss implementing small gardens with high output, including soil prep, successional sowing, crop selection, and storage options. The gardens in question can range from transformed backyard spaces all the way to containers on an apartment balcony. Whether you want vegetables, herbs, or flowers, this will help you dig into the topic!
