2012 Winter Workshop Series

PRI is currently offering THREE Winter Workshop Series - our Intro to Urban Farming Series, Designing a Living Landscape Series, and our Pre-Season Production Series.  Interested? Sign up now!

Want to prepare for spring? These series will help you optimize your growing space and explore new options in food production!  From integral skills like understanding your soil, seed starting, record keeping, and managing pests to more indepth ideas such as turning your food production into a business or greenhouse growing and aquaponics, these series have something for everyone.  

Workshops run Tuesdays and Saturdays through the end of March. 

Sign up for whole series and save, or enroll in any of the workshops individually. Members - make sure to log in at the top of the website to receive your member discount on all pricing.

The 2012 Cycling Re-Sources Design Competition challenges entrants to create a self-sustaining system for growing annual or perennial food crops.  Individual designers and design teams have spent the past two months creating designs, and NOW is the time to view and celebrate their efforts!

JOIN US March 10th, from 4-7 at ArtsUS, where we will showcase this year's designs and name a winner! We will also have an open house for PRI's latest venture - Nature's Edge Designs, along with great food and good music.
