You’ll need to bring a picture (or a few) of the space you’ll be using for growing food … a handful of soil from this space in a plastic bag … and you’ll need to know how many hours of direct sunlight your space receives daily.
You’ll get personal advice and questions answered related to your specific conditions … and to satisfy this purpose, we may run until 9:30 p.m. for an extended Q&A session related to gardening here in Chestnut Hill/Philadelphia/Zone 6 conditions. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cost for the class will be $20 per person and space will be limited, so please make reservations ASAP. ❤
