Amazing Edible Seminar at Lee Valley

With 'the book' coming out in just a few weeks - the official launch date is Jan 14th, but I'm told it could be in stores before then - my spring is starting to book up with workshops, lectures and other similar events. One of these will be taking place at Lee Valley in Halifax on Friday February 17th from 6:30 to 8:30. They just opened registration yesterday and I've listed the details below and the link can be found here - Amazing Edibles Workshop:

I hope to see you there!

Amazing Edibles 2 hours

Friday, February 17, 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m.

"Grow your own produce" is the biggest gardening trend in decades. If you'd like to learn the basics of growing your own vegetables and herbs and extending your harvest season into the fall and winter, join Niki Jabbour for an interactive visual presentation. Niki will share tips on creating a garden that is as pretty as it is productive. Plus, she'll offer ideas on gardening in a small plot or in containers, creating compost, and using cold frames, as well as showcasing a selection of some of the best varieties for Nova Scotia gardeners. Fee: $20.00  

Niki Jabbour is a food gardener and writer who lives near Halifax, Nova Scotia. Her articles have appeared in Canadian Gardener, Garden Making, Gardens East, The Heirloom Gardener and other publications. She is the host of The Weekend Gardener, a call-in radio show airing throughout the Maritimes on News 97.5. Niki blogs at www.yearroundveggiegardener.blogspot.com. Her garden boasts over 40 heirloom vegetables and herbs that keep her family eating fresh food year round.
