Whether you’re new to gardening or have years of experience\, this class offers useful guidance for making your time in the garden more enjoyable and sustainable.\n\nTickets cost $20 for the general public and $15 for Friends of the Market members. The registration deadline is Monday\, May 26th\, so hurry and register at this website! About the teacher: Sara Schiffbauer is a physical therapist and the owner and operator of Columbus Urban Farms\, a small urban farm with big plans to grow good food for good. They are committed to helping people better understand how their bodies function in order to support long-term health and well-being. In their physical therapy practice at OSU\, they focus on mindfulness\, injury prevention\, and empowering people to take an active role in their care.

The premise is simple yet profound: by transforming our yards\, balconies\, and community spaces into wildlife-friendly habitats\, we can create interconnected corridors that provide refuge for native plants and animals. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this program we will discuss what action steps are being suggested to get your home on the Homegrown National Park map. \nOne of those action steps is forgoing the use of chemicals to control the mosquito population by taking the Mosquito Dunk Bucket Challenge.  Five lucky attendees will receive a free mosquito dunk bucket set-up! \nAlthough this presentation is geared towards adults\, the entire family is welcome. \nRegistration is requested but not required. \n  \n\n\n\n\nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n Like this:Like Loading...
