Community Resources
for Urban Gardening

The Garden Hotline has information for northwest gardeners, provided by horticulturists and other experts. Their new guide, Growing Food In The City shows how to build raised beds, grow food in containers and otherwise deal with limited space and soil issues. There's even a calendar of easiest veggies to grow. You can call the Hotline at 206-633-0224 to request a copy, or download your copy from their website.

Seattle Tilth offers community classes, experts to answer questions and educational materials to help you grow your own garden. Seattle Tilth is a non-profit organization. See the full list of Seattle Tilth classes by topic, location or month.
