Gardening with Raised Beds


When you're gardening with raised beds, there are a great many things to do that are identical to gardening in the "real soil" of a normal garden bed. (I confess I have to find a better way to say "real soil") :-) But I'm sure you know what I mean - it's either a raised bed or it's "real soil" or "original level" or "the other garden stuff". One of these days, I'll figure it out. :-)

But there are indeed differences and similarities no matter what we call them. And this course is going to point out some of those differences as well as answer your questions.

As always, I encourage new folks to sign up here if they want to be informed when these courses run and add their voices to what we should be doing.
