REGENERATIVE GARDENING IN ALASKA – PALMER
$199.00
Boy oh boy do we have a treat for you! Ellen VandeVisse of Good Earth Garden School has offered to teach her SIX WEEK Alaska regenerative gardening course to us! She is offering two different classes. (Don’t worry – we are recording it so if you miss one, you can still catch up!) Ellen has taught this class as a one credit course at the college for several years but is now teaching it through us at two valley locations.
This is the signup for the Palmer class that will take place at Valley Community Recycling Solutions on Fridays (additional info including address below). If you’re looking for the Wasilla class, click here.

Description: The focus of this course is how to:
— raise a garden that is ecological, regenerative, & organic
–optimize soil health

With lively labs, instruction, and an armload of hands-on materials, you’ll learn how and why to:
–grow tasty, nutrient-dense vegetables and fruits
–choose which fertilizers, microbes, and organic matter to apply (vs. guessing),
