Exciting to see a market going in downtown by the famously delicious and friendly Bistro 501! Yummmmm!

While it's still a construction zone right now, the Buckley women are leading this project that has been a dream in the making for several years now.

Let's talk about our Introduction to Regenerative Gardening course taught & designed by Tashanda Giles-Jones.

Designed with all levels in mind, the course begins with the history of gardening and then takes students from understanding their soil and what to plant, through troubleshooting potential issues, and finally to harvesting! This 8-module course includes lectures, interviews with industry leaders and experts, a curated list of readings and resources, a monthly webinar for graduates, and exclusive access to a Kiss the Ground slideshow for alumni to use in future presentations.
