Want to learn about Austin’s unique growing seasons, climate, soils, plants, and water resources? Want to raise safe, nutritious food for your family, and want your children to know and enjoy gardening? Don’t have a lot of time, money, patience, or space… but want food and want it to work, now?
Each Citizen Gardener session consists of two Saturday morning classes and one Wednesday evening class, for a total of 10 instruction hours. You’ll learn the basics of Central TX organic food gardening in this hands-on course.
Topics covered include: site design; raised bed construction; square foot gardening; composting; Austin climate, soil, and planting seasons; mulch beds; trellising; shade-/green-houses; rainwater collection, and more. Join us to get all the information/experience you need to design, build, plant, and enjoy your own back-/front-yard garden this fall.
Initial cost is $30, due on the first day of class (cash or check made out to "Sustainable Food Center"). $10 dollars will be refunded if you complete 10 volunteer hours at one of our Citizen Gardener partner gardens.
