Speaking Engagements

 

 

2010

 

I have had several request for garden tours this spring. February would be an ideal time for a tour, but I am expecting a new baby around Valentine's Day. I have no other speaking engagements scheduled for 2010 yet; feel free to ask!

 

In the meantime, see the Edible Landscaping page for a virtual tour of my garden.

Garden Tours

 

 Garden tours are limited to 35 people and are adults only. The tour is a class that is around 2+ hours in length. As we tour the garden, you will learn about dirt, drip irrigation, watering times, growing food year-round, pruning fruit trees, getting rid of bugs, mixing food and flowers to create an edible landscape, fruit tree selections for the desert, espaliered fruit trees, how to make use of the walls for growing space, and more. If you have a group that would like to schedule a garden tour, please let me know. If you are an individual wanting to attend, look for upcoming garden tours and rsvp to attend.

In case you're wondering what that is on the produce scale, it's a 3lb turnip. I harvested it from my garden on February 20th, 2009
