The gardening workshop will touch on the basics of growing organic food in small gardens in Tucson. 

Some of the workshop will be hands-on and experiential (observing crops and methods up close, planting seeds, tasting seasonal fruits...)

Topics will include:

• site selection

• soil preparation and amendments

• garden design and planning

• useful tools

• heritage crops (what grows well here)

• how to acquire seeds and starts

• planting seasons

• crop rotations

• protecting your plants and managing pests

• seed-saving, and more

Refreshments will be provided, and participants will be able to take home some heirloom seeds from Mission Garden.
