Noblesville, IN – Are you interested in creating or transitioning to organic practices in your garden? Join fellow gardeners on Saturday, April 13th to learn how use organic practices in your garden and develop a plan for your property.

In this workshop you will learn about seed selection, soil health, cover crops, pest management, and sourcing organic products. There will be a panel Q&A session and time for questions.

This workshop is part of an annual spring Sustainability Series held by Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District and Purdue Extension Hamilton County. This year’s event is also supported by Marion County Soil and Water Conservation District.

“Each year we focus on a different sustainable living topic and we think a holistic organic gardening approach is central to sustainability” said Hamilton County SWCD Urban Conservationist Claire Lane.   “This workshop is great because it is not just about receiving great information but also developing a plan to implement it on your property so we focus on providing access to expert speakers so attendees can ask specific questions regarding their property and get advice.”

The Sustainability Workshop will take place Saturday April 13th at the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds Exhibition Hall in Noblesville. The workshop costs $20 per person (includes lunch) and will run from 9am – 3pm.  Registration can be completed at www.hamiltonswcd.org. Space is limited.
