Garden Class

 

Peaceful Belly offers a 35 week victory garden intern course. We start with a piece of bare land and create a huge plentiful organic garden from the ground up. This garden will be the students garden to run, maintain and harvest. After this course you will have all the knowledge to grow all their own vegetable garden.

Course Description
Starting all plants from seed, composting, compost teas, building fences, creating an irrigation system, garden planning, trellising, equipment maintenance, successions planting, pest control, crop rotation, companion planting, weeding, harvesting and much more.

Course Cost and Benefits

The course is 35 weeks totaling $500 for entire course. Food produced in the garden will be shared among students. This is a huge benefit because we will produce almost every vegetable that the treasure valley can grow and a lot of it. It is kinda like joining a CSA but better.

Time Commitment
The class will be for 2 to 3 hours. Also, each student is required to spend one additional hour a week in the garden doing maintenance; weeding, water and learning the secrets of the soil. Classes will start in March and go until October

Location
We will  teaching this class in a farm setting at Hidden Springs Farm. If you are interested in this course please send Josie an email about yourself, your interest and why you would like to do this class.  Contact Josie at info@peacefulbelly.com
