Fall and winter are fantastic times to garden in Pensacola! Temperatures are cooler, pests and diseases are at their minimum, and our mild winters allow for a bountiful harvest even during the coldest times of year. With the heat and humidity of summer behind us, it’s also a great time of year to be in the garden!
In our “All About Vegetables: Fall and Winter” class, we’ll explore in detail how and when to grow specific vegetables that thrive in our fall and winter seasons including: lettuce, carrots, onions, chard, cauliflower, dill, broccoli, cabbage, garlic, English peas, endive, radicchio, cilantro, fennel, mustard, turnips, beets, radishes, Asian greens, collards, fava beans, kohlrabi, spinach, Brussels sprouts, parsley, kale, arugula and more.
Choose one of these times:
– Tuesday morning, Sept. 19th – 9:00 – 11:00 am
– Thursday evening, Sept. 21st – 6:00 – 8:00 pm
The cost for this two-hour class is $25 if you register through Friday, Sept. 15th – after that the cost is $30. To reserve your spot, please contact the Vickrey Community Center (where the classes are held) at 850-912-4056 ext 1.
