Anytime is a good time to start a garden, and it is especially fun in the sun. We will be finding nooks and edges to start a big new plot. A lasagna garden is easy to make by layering organic matter, allowing time to break down the grass underneath, and all the matter we layer on top. If can dig soil from pathways that can be a good way to get extra soil. We will plant field peas and other nitrogen fixers to fix nitrogen naturally.
Village engages individuals, neighbourhoods & organizations to take actions that build sustainable communities & have fun doing it. Join us!
