Hosting a tour last year of the garden.
We selected one twenty-four hours for each class – a outflow date of May 3rd to cover our raise rowing gardening techniques – and another in mid to late summertime , August 9th , for a canning Clarence Day class .
Each of the class will run two hours and initiate with a tour of the farm . After each presentation , we will conclude with a sampling of some of our own food produce on the farm and a chance for those attending to swop and share gardening stories of their own .
The canning course will include a complete take off - to - culture fresh from the garden salsa canning demonstration
The canning class will include a complete start-to-finish fresh from the garden salsa canning demonstration
The division are free , but we postulate to limit involution for the gardening class to 25 , and the canning course of study to 15 participant , so as to provide the beneficial chance for fundamental interaction and questions .
