[HCCN-Talk] Fwd: Building a Garden Bed Now for Spring Planting Workshop

[Brenda Cartwright]

You are invited to attend a "no dig" gardening workshop. Please share this
notice with friends.

When: Saturday October 3 from 2-4 PM

Where: 36 Central St, Ellsworth

Cost: $10 plus any organic material you have available- leaves, grass
clippings, food scraps, etc. This will be a potluck garden.

What we are going to do-  You will learn how to build a vegetable garden on
top of existing soil, grass or weeds using a simple technique referred to as
"no dig" gardening. This is done by adding layers of organic material which
decomposes and  becomes soil very similar to what occurs in nature. This is
a "hands on" workshop, working with others to build a 4x12 ft garden bed. So
come dressed in old clothes prepared to get a little dirty.

A two minute video of one of our workshops can be found on Youtube at

Preregistration is required:  Space is limited to the first 15 who register.
 To register, contact Bob Jones at bobjonesinnz at yahoo.com
or 664-6190

This workshop is a project of Hancock Co Towns in Transition.

We hope to hear from you. It's great fun.
Bob Jones
