The Producers | Gardening on a Budget & Small Space Gardening

Brought to you by Pocket City Farms!

Think you need a big backyard or lots of cash to grow your own food? Think again!

Join us for this hands-on, practical workshop with the sustainability legends at Pocket City Farms, where we’ll explore how to create thriving, productive gardens in even the tiniest of spaces - all without breaking the bank. Perfect for students living in apartments, terraces, or shared houses, or anyone curious about growing food in creative and cost-effective ways.

What you’ll learn:
