Hello all out there in Cyber Space,

I am serving as an AmeriCorps*VISTA  in Burlington, Vermont. We are planning to start a teaching garden next Spring for low to moderate income folks to learn how to garden and grow food. We are going to grow mostly vegetables. I was wondering if anyone out there has ever worked with teaching gardens and if you have any helpful information. I am interested in how you organized the classes, how often you met, what you taught, if it was difficult to find participants, what you grew and anything else you can share with me.

Any information at all would be helpful. If you have any information you can send me, that would be great too. If you could,  send it to:
