Question by Asfvfan: Learn Organic Gardening?
Because of rising food prices, I want to learn how to grow my own vegetables organically. However, I don’t really know where to start. So what are good resources or places to learn? Organic gardening classes or websites?
Can you help? Leave your own answer in the comments!
Check out the Mother Earth News website. They have lots of articles on different techniques. You can also google “lasagna gardening” or “layered gardening”, “postage stamp gardening” or “intensive gardening” (for small plots), and “no-till gardening” (I’m doing that this year).

Contact your county extension agency and ask if there are any gardening classes.
