Above Ground Gardening
Social Science/History | Registration opens 1/5/2026 12:00 AM MST (Arizona)
Growing and eating your own vegetables and fruits full of colors and flavor and knowing that they are filled with wholesome nutrients with no trace of pesticides or insecticides makes it seem that they are more scrumptious than ever. You will learn how to easily construct your own above ground garden, whether you live in a home, in an apartment or have a plot in a community garden. You will also learn the importance to keep what you once threw in the trash; banana peels, orange peels, an old salad, grass clippings, etc., and with your new knowledge you will recognize that the discarded items were a hidden, natural and robust treasure to feed your garden and you will assist them to change into a natural fertilizer – compost. You will be more equipped to enrich your soil and prepare your own food.
