Event Description
Succession planting—following one crop with another—is an important method for maximizing a garden's yield. With one of the shortest growing season in BC, gardeners and farmers in the Vancouver region can take advantage of succession planning to help maximize their harvest. Creating a detailed succession plan eliminates the guesswork of what and when to plant later on in the season.
During this workshop, we will overview the advantages of succession planning and demonstrate the benefit of well-planned crops. We will look at season extension structures and techniques, and we will spend some time focusing on the ideal crops for our region. This workshop is well suited for backyard gardeners as well as small-scale farmers.
Date: Thursday, February 21, 6-8pm
