The reception and enthusiasm for straw bale gardening has proved revolutionary in vegetable growing. Why? Because the bold promises it makes are kept: grow vegetables anywhere, earlier in the year, with no weeding. Gardeners everywhere are excited. Straw bale gardening works! You can apply this method in just about any environment: on a city balcony, by a beachside retreat, in a rocky outpost, in a desert, and even in the tundra of Alaska.
This class contains all of the information that has set the gardening world on fire, including growing in a tight urban setting, making your straw bale garden completely organic, and using proper fertilizers and conditioning products.
Straw bale gardening solves every impediment today's home gardeners face: bad soil, weeds, a short growing season, watering problems, limited garden space, and even physical difficulty working at ground level. Straw bale gardens create their own growing medium and heat source so you can get an earlier start. It couldn't be simpler or more effective: all you need is a few bales of straw, some fertilizer, and some seeds or plants, and you can create a weedless vegetable garden anywhere-even in your driveway. Our step-by-step workshop demo and lecture offers all the information you need to make your own straw bale garden as soon as you get home! Whether it's seedlings or seeds, veggies or flowers, there is practically no limit to the plant varieties that will prosper in a straw bale garden - and with our help - you can do it all yourself.
This class is taught by farmer Cynthia Sandberg co-founder of the World Tomato Society, and is held at Love Apple Farms' spring plant sale, located at 5311 Scotts Valley Dr., Scotts Valley, CA. Read speaker and class reviews for Cynthia Sandberg, here.
