Learn to grow your own organic vegetables through Square Foot Gardening!
Attend our seminars to learn how to increase your harvest while saving MONEY, TIME, and RESOURCES!
The half-day seminar is the best staring place for success in Square Foot Gardening at home. It teaches the whole 12 step cycle of gardening, addressing ALL the issues you will encounter gardening for yourself.
You will leave the seminar with your “Garden Map,” which includes all the steps in the cycle, what you want to plant, what materials you need to start, and the answers to specific challenges or questions that you have.
You will have all the resources that you need to successfully begin growing your garden!
Whole-Day Seminar
March – November
The whole-day seminar adds additional topics to the 12-step cycle such as: Composting, Vertical Growing, Advanced Pest Protection, Perennials, Teaching Others, and Year Round Harvest.
The most successful gardeners take the half-day seminar first, wait one cycle (about 90 days), and then take the whole day seminar for long term success.
This is why we offer a discount for anyone who has attended the half day seminar or is repeating the whole day seminar.

Mel Bartholomew
Mel Bartholomew envisioned that the end of world hunger lied in a cost-effective, environmentally-friendly method of gardening he named “Square Foot Gardening.” This method is used around the world in ALL climates and circumstances. No matter the space, soil conditions, or time constraints, Square Foot Gardening makes organic, home-grown produce accessible for all communities.
Square Foot Gardening also conserves land and water. It uses only 10% of the water a traditional row garden requires. No special tools, skills, machinery, or fertilizers are needed for this method! What are you waiting for?
Change the world with us, one square foot at a time.
