Organic Gardening Course

Whether you are an organic gardening newbie or an experienced gardener, NOFA-NJ’s Organic Gardening Course for Food Production will provide you with time-tested information as well as opportunities to discuss specific questions about your garden. Learn how to improve your soil and how to plan, prepare and plant your garden. Where there are gardens, there are weeds, diseases and pests, and you will discover how to manage these challenges using tested methods for common crops and critters. Instructor, Al Johnson, has farmed or gardened organically for over 40 years. He will be joined by Rutgers agent Bill Sciarappa, also an organic gardening educator.
