Hi everyone,
Welcome to Class 9 of the Urban Agriculture Certificate Course from CultivAction Solidarity Cooperative. Erik Chevrier, Ph.D. is away this week, so Mohammed will be leading today’s session.
We’ll begin by continuing with preservation and storage techniques that we didn’t have time to cover last class. Since we already explored seed saving, today’s focus will shift to food preservation and effective storage methods. We’ll also take time to discuss fall crops and what you can plant for the upcoming season.
In our ninth session, we will focus on Post-Harvest Management, Preservation Techniques, and Fall Crops. Together, we will explore how to extend the life of your harvest, preserve food for future use, and plan for autumn planting to keep gardens productive into the cooler months. Participants will also have time to apply lessons directly in their garden plots.
