We use 300 square feet of our garden for veggies & fruits. We grow tomatoes, tomatillos, peaches, blackberries, rhubarb, peppers, beans, peas, and a variety of other leafy greens and trial vegetable oddities. Emphasis is on heirloom varieties of all of these plants, which we find tend to produce the best home-grown flavors and color. This also makes it possible for us to collect the seeds for next year's garden for ourselves and our friend...

Denver, COTurn your garbage into gold!
Composting is good for your yard and garden, good for the environment, easy to do and fun! Compost can retain 100% of its weight in water and is an important component of gardening in a drought.
Backyard "Learn to Compost" classes are free, but participants are asked to register at least one week before the class, so proper staffing can be arranged.
To register visit the Denver Recycles website:
http://www.denvergov.org/recoth/LearntoCompostClasses/tabid/425855/Default.aspx
Phone or online registrations do not guarantee class placement. Priority may be given to Denver residents.
These classes are sponsored by Denver Recycles/Solid Waste Management, Denver Urban Gardens and the Metro Wastewater Reclamation District.
