Create an Instant Garden: Sheet Mulching Workshop

Learn how to build an instant garden *on top* of your lawn. No more digging, removing of sod, or building of raised beds.
We will create an instant garden in a community member's yard by imitating how a forest builds soil using the "sheet mulching" technique.
Through this method, we can plant directly into the new soil--as long as mother nature is done with her frost and snowstorms for the year.
