Jenn Dowell has been a community food access advocate for years, teaching urban farming in the Delridge corridor with the Little Red Hen Project. She also started the learning garden at Pathfinder Elementary, which has endured for twelve years and has become part of the science curriculum at the school.
In this class, she will explain which vegetables, flowers, and herbs are best started indoors in winter, and which ones can be directly sown into the garden outdoors, when the soil has started to warm. She will discuss seed selection, timing, growing media, lighting, hardening off seedlings, seed bed prep, watering, and fertilizing.
We have all the books, tools, seeds, soil, heat mats, grow lights, and starter trays you need to get started.
Class attendees will receive a 10% off coupon to use at the nursery.
