Free Urban Gardening Classes Coming to Broad Rock Library
Posted on February 1, 2013 by christina | No Comments
It’s a unique event when free classes are offered in urban gardening, but especially when they’re happening on Southside.
The upcoming Urban Agriculture Learning Series looks like it’s going to be a great series of classes since people like Duron Chavis, of the Noir Market; Lisa Taranto, founder of Tricycle Gardens; and John Lewis, of Renew Richmond look to be involved. These guys know their stuff and are eager to bring awareness of living healthy to areas of Richmond like Southside that get the short end of the stick when it comes to educational opportunities and options for eating healthy (our world for a descent grocery store) The bottom line is, te highly recommend you checking it out whether you’re a novice in the yard or have some experience under the gardening belt.
If you’re on Facebook, and you should because WE’RE on Facebook, you can read more at the event page. The basics: Classes will be held on Saturday mornings at 11am-12:30pm, beginning on February 16 and continuing until March 23. Registrants should meet at the Richmond Public Library’s Broad Rock Branch, which is located at the corner of Warwick Road and Broad Rock Boulevard. (Just off of Hull Street Road)
