Home Vegetables Done Right

Have you ever wanted to eat vegetables that you grew yourself? Mt. Hood Community College is offering “Home Vegetable Gardening Done Right,” a new community education class that will touch on the basics of creating and maintaining your own home garden, both organically and non-organically.

The class will be held Feb. 18-20, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m., on the Gresham campus, 26000 S.E. Stark St.

Steve Schmidt, the class instructor, has held an interest in horticulture for nearly 40 years. In 1982 he started his own business as a landscape gardener. His love of gardening stems from the time he spent with his parents as a child. His parents felt that a garden was an essential addition to their table, and taught by example the importance of hard work and the value of growing what you eat.

For questions about registering for the class, call 503-491-7572.
