Container Gardening Class & Spaghetti Lunch

Neighbors and friend enjoyed a class on Container Garedning on April 9th. The class was given by volunteer, Starr Yurkewycz, who also happens to work a the Oregon Food Bank.

Among the things shared:
  • Use fresh potting soil in well drained containers
  • Fertilize often
  • Choose the right size plant for the right size pot
  • Focusing on varieties and plants that are suited for container gardening will help you get the most out of your container garden
Following the class, we ventured outside with Kelly Caldwell to collect containers, soil and seeds!



The event was augmented with a complimentary spaghetti lunch prepared by Dan Curin.
