Sign Up for Dig This!

So, you want to grow food, but have a fear of composting? A uneasy sense of lead levels? Can't figure out what pruning is for?
Well, meet the experts thanks to New Orleans Food and Farm Network. Anne Baker, Grant and Noel are full of information, funny and happy to anwer stupid questions (well, they've always answered mine!). And of course, Dan Gill is a gem too.
so, get on the ferry, and get to the Dig This. It's right down the street from the ferry.

I highly recommend spending the time meeting your fellow greenies!


* The Dig This! topics include: Soil health and testing
* Caring for fruit trees
* Selecting and growing varieties of veggies for our area
* Organic pest and disease control
* Landscape mapping and planning
* Raising chickens

At the end of the workshop, head over to the other event at Common Ground and and try some hands on garden work and learn worm composting. There you get to work with Macon Fry, Garden Guy and Super Amy from LongueVue and the cool folks at Common Ground.
