Grow Your Own Pt. 5: Maintenance and Harvest

June 4th - Maintenance and Harvest

June completes our planting of the summer vegetable garden and then it is time to focus on maximizing the harvest. For the urban gardener, this may mean optimizing a small space to produce as much food as possible. We will discuss strategies for optimizing yield of your vegetable crops throughout the growing season. We will highlight the best types of trellises for plants that like to grow up. Each participant will leave with a maintenance plan for the upcoming month in their garden.

This class is available here individually, or as a whole series of five classes ($100, must sign up by Feb 5th). RSVP on this page for the individual session described below, or click here (https://www.meetup.com/Portland-Permaculture-Meetup/events/97644482/) to register for the full series.

How to Grow Your Own Produce - The Workshop Series

"Timing is Important"

This workshop series is designed to help you maximize your yields and endeavors in the garden by providing an overview of key activities to engage in at the right time each month from February through June.

Facilitator Marisha Auerbach has spent many years observing and interacting in her garden and in the greater bioregion. Each month, she will provide participants with a road map for the month ahead. Each class will end with interactive time for expanding on your garden design and recieving feedback both from Marisha and your classmates.
