Kathy 541-444-9627 Healthy Traditions is offering a series of free garden instruction classes: Sig n-u p “Seed to Supper Gardening” Tod a y! Seed to Supper Classes are 5 sessions designed for beginner gardening instruction. Classes are designed to give gardeners the tools and confidence they need to successfully grow a portion of their own food on a limited budget. A simple meal is provided. Seed to Supper will meet for 3 hours from Feb.-May. At the first class we will start seedlings that you may take home. The second week’s class, participants will be given a gardening booklet that is theirs to keep. At the completion or during classes, participants may also be given seeds and/or plant starts to take home. (If you become a member of the Community Garden, you can direct sow seeds or keep your plant starts in the greenhouse until all danger of frost is gone.) Join classes sponsored in each area office through the Healthy Traditions Team! Over the course of 14 hours of instruction, all participants will learn about building healthy soil; planning, planting, and caring for their garden; and harvesting and using their bounty. Open to all tribal members and their families! Your local Community Health Advocate (CHA) is planning activities in your area. To see what classes are offered, see your local area office newsletter!
