Event Description

Want veggies this fall? Crunchy home-grown lettuce and hearty kale and other greens? Summer's the time to plant for the fall and winter, and to start thinking about planting overwintering herbs and vegetables! In this Village Vancouver workshop with Rhiannon Johnson, you'll learn how and when to plant cool-weather veggies such as kale, lettuce, parsley, coriander, spinach and swiss chard on your balcony or in your garden for a fall and winter feast!
