FAQ

I don't have a yard for a garden, can I still take the class?
Yes! If you have room a 4' x 4' raised bed that would be ideal, but if not there is still plenty to learn about planting a garden. If you only have room for containers and planters, perhaps you may be interested in taking our "Patio Container Garden Class".
