What is edible gardening? Growing stuff you can eat. Mostly vegetables but also fruit, herbs, and a few flowers. Maybe even sprouts and mushrooms in the winter.

Why are we having meetings? To help people in Central New York learn from experts and from each other how to grow healthy food in their own yards and community gardens, harvest it, and preserve it for the winter.

We also have people willing to answer questions and offer advice on gardening because, while vegetable gardening is not that hard, we have lost a lot of the knowledge and skill that our grandparents had. As you try gardening you might want a little help.

The next meeting is February 27, 2010 at 2:00.
Topics include: starting seeds indoors, container gardening and growing small fruits - such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries.
At this and all meetings there will be a time for questions.
Free and open to the public!
