๐๐จ๐ซ๐ค๐ฌ๐ก๐จ๐ฉ ๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ฐโฃThis hands-on gardening workshop focuses on growing abundant salad greens in containers โ whether you have a patio, balcony, small yard, or just a sunny doorstep. Weโll explore how container size, soil depth, and plant selection affect growth, flavor, and harvest longevity.
Youโll learn how to set up a container that keeps producing over time, how to harvest without killing your plants, and how to plan for simple succession so youโre not starting from scratch every few weeks.
This workshop is beginner-friendly and designed for real-life growing conditions.
