Starting vegetables from seed can save money and will give you access to thousands of vegetable varieties not available as transplants. And with three Free Seed Libraries in Alameda in 2021, you are going to want to know how to care for your seeds. This year’s class has - of course - gone virtual, but with a twist. Birgitt will alternate an online talk with two “how to” videos that will walk you through the process of starting seeds as well as growing and transplanting seedlings. After the videos, she will answer questions.
Birgitt Evans has grown her own food on a large scale for the past 30 years and created a successful garden and nursery business.
