I am teaching three programs through the Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College(WITC). All are webinars and require registrations. Click here for information on how to register and fees for each course.

Here is the line-up:

February 11, 10:00 am - Intensive Gardening This course highlights a variety of methods, some old and some new, to produce a large harvest in the smallest space possible. Some of the techniques covered include: vertical landscaping, using trellises, raised beds and walls for both ornamental plants and vegetables. Lasagna, straw bale and square foot gardening are explained along with some that are not as well known. You will get in-depth information on both time-tested methods and new techniques in this class.
March 4, 10:00 am - Gardening – Mixing It Up This class will describe how to mix up borders with a variety of plant materials. No longer are gardeners restricted to only one type per plant bed or keeping the beds tiered with small in front and tall in back. Mixed borders combine annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees and hardscape. Learn a few tricks on sizing, designing, and planning four seasons for your garden. A full list of plants and how to grow them will be included.
March 25, 10:00 am - Gardening with Ornamental Edibles Learn how to have a good looking landscape that you can eat. Many plants have berries, foliage, or flowers that are good looking and tasty. This course will identify the many ornamental edible plants for our area and how you can grow them in containers or add to a perennial garden. We’ll even identify some weeds that are edible providing you with even more motivation for weeding.
