Anyone can grow a potato or a strawberry plant but can you grow them under trees, in a straw bale, or on a fence? Join story-telling gardener Donna Balzer as she reveals growing secrets to make use all the nooks and crannies in your condo, balcony or large scale garden this summer. This entertaining new presentation is full of tips to grow common foods in uncommon ways.
Truth is stranger than fiction so this talk also includes the latest ideas from 5,000 years ago and the hidden ingredients in organic fertilizers that will help you grow food faster.
Why grow like everyone else? This talk will help you reach new goals in your garden regardless of its size this season.
These German Butterball potatoes were grown in a fabric grow bag. Harvest was over 10 lbs (4278 grams) from 4 organic seed potatoes (60 grams total)
These strawberries are growing outside in a rain gutter where they thrive pest free and full of flavour.
Sometimes Donna just sits in her greenhouse and writes in her journal. Such a cozy place all year round.
Gardeners keeping records benefit from teaching themselves all about their own gardens! Get your journal in advance from the Shop on this web site.
