'Grow Your Own' Series: Build Your Own Garden Bed APRIL 29

SIGN UP TO BUILD YOUR OWN GARDEN BED HERE

In collaboration with Slow Food Lake Tahoe, we present the Build Your Own Garden Bed workshop! Learn how to build a critter proof garden bed from local woodworking experts. 

During this interactive workshop, you will be led through some basic safety precautions and carpentry skills, then have an opportunity to build and take home your own raised bed. This workshop is an excellent choice for beginner level gardeners. You will learn about selecting the right building materials, cutting wood using Miter saws, Jigsaws, and hand saws, sanders and different sand papers, fasteners and drills and more!

No experience necessary! You will learn how to use all the necessary power tools and then be approved for their use at the Truckee Roundhouse. Workshop participants will also be given ONE FREE DAY to work at the Roundhouse! With enrollment in our Bed-Building workshop, you are also invited to attend Slow Food's Organic Gardening 101 Workshop the following day FOR FREE.
