On Saturday September 21, in our usual spot in the Learning Garden at 2:30pm, Joanne Poyourow (@ecmJoanne) will talk about Planning Your Cool Season Garden.
The cool season can be some of the most productive months in our Southern California Gardens, and the Brassica family is the star of the show. Brassicas include kale, collards, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, kohlrabi, cabbages, turnips, radishes, arugula, and more!
Joanne will show you how to plan your cool season garden for seed saving as well as yummy vegetables for your table. She'll show you how to plan a garden to minimize varietal crossing.
Joanne runs Cityscape Seeds, a local seed company developing vegetable varieties which are localized to Los Aneles. She managed the Community Garden at Holy Nativity in Westchester for eleven years. Handouts will be on her website, Change-Making.com, Ask about her latest Eco punk novel Whatever Comes Next or get your hands on Legacy for some real inspiration.
