Are you interested in creating raised bed gardens but don’t know where to start? Join us for a two-part workshop, including an introduction to the benefits of raised bed gardens and an in-person hands-on session to build wooden raised bed gardens. You’ll go away with skills and knowledge about location, material selection, construction methods, and how to grow various plants in raised beds.

Presenters: Sean O’Brien, Home Horticulture Program Manager, UNH Extension and others
