2008 Seedy Saturday Mini Workshops:
o    Composting:  11:00-12:00 with Harris Ivens, Assistant Farm Manager at Everdale and compost specialist. Get in to the dirt and the compost with this primer.  Hands on, you can try out vermi-composting, making compost tea and learn the basics of how to build a heap.   A discussion of soils and the uses for compost will wrap up the session.
o    Biointensive Gardening: 2:00-3:00 with Gavin Dandy, Everdale Farm Manager. Learn how to grow more vegetables in less space than you ever thought possible. In order to achieve greater productivity, the biointensive method uses double dug raised beds, intensive planting, and companion planting.
