Kansas City Area Workshop

On Friday, March 9 and Saturday the 10th from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM there will be a workshop on how to build your own low cost high tunnel or hoop house at Niles Home for Children. This type of greenhouse will allow us to protect our tomato plants this summer and let us grow greens through the winter. In addition to showing how to build the structure, Patrice will talk about how and what to grow in it as well. Patrice put on a no till workshop three years ago and was a wonderful source of information and inspiration. This workshop is free; however for those in the position to do so financially, a suggested donation for attending both days is $15 and a suggested donation for attending one day is $10. We will provide cheese, bread and a salad for lunch and ask for a $10 lunch donation. 

Patrice has a lot of knowledge. You could spend many days with him and still learn much. Either day will give you the essentials of his hoop house construction method.

Please Register: To register please send your name and contact information and what days you wish to come. Send to the email above.

Sponsors are Get Growing Kansas City, Lincoln University Cooperative Extension,  Niles Home for Children, Heartland All Species Project
