Come learn to plant vegetables with your
children! Fat City Farmers offers one hour workshops for families at the
Roaring Fork High School garden.
We will tour the greenhouse and
garden, show children how to plant in the forest garden, share
gardening tips, harvest something to taste and read a garden story.
Please bring your water bottle and sun hats. All ages, all people
welcome. Se habla español.

$5 donation to the youth gardening program, or free or whatever you can afford.
A forest garden (http://www.beaconfoodforest.org/
) is a permaculture model that plants trees, berries, perennial herbs,
and annual vegetables in a mix so that they each will grow optimally. It
mimics a natural woodland.
People who come for a workshop orientation are welcome to adopt an area of the forest garden for their own use to plant and harvest what they wish in that area. It is essentially a community garden, and there is no charge. We want people to plant and use the space.
