Edible Landscaping Workshop

Sustainable gardening and landscaping NEW

This interactive panel discussion will take your sustainability goals outdoors and show you how to get your hands dirty, grow your own food, and make the most of your co-op's gardening potential.

Meet speakers like Andrea Bellamy, author of the soon-to-be-published Urban Edibles: How to grow organic vegetables, fruit, herbs, and grains in small spaces, and David Tracey, an ecological landscape designer with a passion for tree care, community gardens and increasing access to healthy, affordable food. You'll find out how to grow a garden anywhere, create garden plans, and find ways to get the whole co-op community involved. There will be plenty of time for your questions and discussion following the presentations.
