Topic: "Organic Gardening, Critters and Vertical Gardens"
Grow a vibrant organic garden that is beautiful, productive and surprisingly diverse! Join Lisa Taylor, garden speaker and author of the “Maritime Northwest Garden Guide” and “Your Farm in the City; An Urban Dweller’s Guide to Growing Food and Raising Animals” for a lively discussion about growing organically and using vertical gardening techniques. We’ll cover the basics of creating a healthy, pesticide-free garden and the Organic Checklist. We will identify vegetables and fruit that are best suited to growing in our maritime climate. We’ll reimage our gardens to maximize plant diversity and food production by growing vertically. We’ll explore plants that love to climb and how to construct attractive and functional trellises, teepees and arbors. Gardening is pure joy until the slugs, rabbits and deer devour all your plants so we’ll discuss gardening practices that benefit wildlife while keeping them out of the beds so your garden can thrive.
