The Art of Urban Farming
The workshop will kick off with an in-depth look at the principles of urban farming. You'll discover the many benefits of growing your own produce, from reducing your carbon footprint to enjoying unparalleled flavor and nutrition. Our instructors will guide you through the process of selecting the right crops, building raised beds or container gardens, and implementing sustainable growing techniques.
Soil Preparation and Seed Selection
A healthy harvest starts with healthy soil. You'll learn how to enrich your soil with the right amendments and prepare it for planting. Our experts will also share their recommendations for the best vegetable, herb, and microgreen varieties to grow in the city, taking into account factors like climate, available sunlight, and space constraints.
Irrigation and Pest Management
Keeping your urban garden thriving requires a bit of know-how when it comes to watering and pest control. We'll cover efficient irrigation methods that conserve water, as well as natural, eco-friendly ways to deter unwanted critters and protect your plants.
Harvesting and Storage
As your crops reach maturity, you'll learn the optimal time and techniques for harvesting. We'll demonstrate proper post-harvest handling to ensure your produce stays fresh and flavorful. You'll also pick up tips for storing your bounty to enjoy it long after the workshop has ended.
Hands-On Learning and Taste Test
The highlight of the workshop will be the hands-on planting and harvesting portion. You'll get your hands dirty as you sow seeds, transplant seedlings, and tend to your mini urban farm. At the end of the day, you'll gather your freshly picked greens and participate in an exciting taste test, savoring the fruits of your labor.
