Are you interested in learning to grow your own food, but don’t know where to start? Do you want to have a garden, but don’t have the space? Have you tried to garden on your own and been disappointed?

This Grow Bag Gardening Class - designed for the beginner gardener - is a perfect introduction to growing your own food.

At the class you will learn the basics of container gardening, including what kind of containers to use, soil and fertilizer selection, how to choose the perfect location for your container, and how to care for your garden to achieve maximum harvests with minimal work.

You will plant your own 7 gallon Grow Bag (What’s a grow bag? Don’t worry, we’ll go over that) and you will have an experienced garden coach to guide you through every step. The plants you will choose from will include lettuces, spinach, swiss chard, kale, and a mix of other salad greens. These plants grow here in the Wilmington, NC area outside all through the winter, and should give you many harvests from this one planting.

When the 1-hour class is over, you will take home your planted Grow Bag, along with the knowledge to care for it confidently.

This class is designed for beginners and aspiring gardeners who have struggled in the past to keep plants growing. Gardeners of all experience levels are welcome, but the basics are the focus of this class.

Pre-registration is required. Hope to see you there!
