Backyard Gardener’s Workshops

City Green’s two-week Backyard Gardener Workshop is held to help local residents develop the skills needed to begin gardening in their own backyards or expand on their existing gardening skills. Learn vegetable and flower gardening, container gardening, how to make your plants thrive, organic gardening techniques, natural pest management and more!  At the finish of the course City Green will provide gardener’s with some starter plants and/or seeds to add to your home garden.  Beginners and experienced gardeners are welcome! At the end of the second class you will receive the start up materials. There is a $5.00 registration fee.

Green Your Block! –  Neighborhood Garden Club Program

Get five neighbors on your block to join together to beautify and green your block! City Green will provide your group with a basic gardening class where you will learn the skills necessary to plant and care for your flowers and trees. We will also provide flower barrels, seeds, starter plants and flower bulbs. You need to organize five of your neighbors; each neighbor must attend both classes and pay a $5.00 registration fee.  At the end of the second class your group will receive the start up materials.

All classes are held in the City Green Learning Garden at Eastside Park.
