Lunch and Learn: Seed to Harvest

About the presentation: Seed to Harvest:
This presentation explains the basics of growing organic vegetables from start to finish. It covers how to prepare soil, plant seeds, and take care of plants with proper watering, sunlight, and natural pest control. It also talks about using compost and organic fertilizers to keep soil healthy. Finally, it explains when and how to harvest crops for the best results. Overall, it’s a simple guide to help beginners successfully grow their own food.

About Park City Harvest:
Park City Harvest was established in 2017. Noticing that we were the ONLY two black people in the program we’ve been dedicated to changing the image of farming within urban communities while feeding and educating the communities that we serve. So our mission is to nourish our community by cultivating both the land and the mind, by providing fresh food and the education needed to grow it. We at PCH firmly believes that we can transform our communities one plant, one bite, and one voice at a time. While being able to “Farm for Financial Freedom”.

Kick off the growing season with practical planting knowledge from Farmer Rich and Farmer Shawn! The founders of Park City Harvest, an urban agricultural initiative, will share an approachable guide to growing delicious, organic vegetables in Connecticut.
