Whether you are look­ing for ways to con­vert your back­yard into a lush gar­den space, or just try­ing to improve your yields while keep­ing your soil healthy and fer­tile, this intro­duc­tory work­shop is for you.

Since 1981, the South­side Com­mu­nity Land Trust (SCLT) has been teach­ing gar­den­ers of all skill lev­els how to grow food safely and pro­duc­tively in Providence.

Rich Ped­er­son will intro­duce you to every­thing you need to know to start and main­tain an organic gar­den. We will dis­cuss the basic tenets of organic gar­den­ing, as well as tech­niques for seed­ing, trans­plant­ing, main­tain­ing soil fer­til­ity, con­trol­ling pests and weeds, con­tainer gar­den­ing, and more.
