Get the most out of your garden this Fall! The USDA People's Garden Initiative is happy to announce a series of online trainings so you can learn about home canning, seed saving, attracting pollinators, and extending the growing season without leaving your desk. Learn how SNAP recipients can grow food with their benefits and spread the word.

We are glad to be able to offer these sessions via webinar for those who would like to learn more about sustainable gardening practices.

 

There is no charge for registration and all sessions are open to USDA employees and the public. Please follow your agency's protocol for training approval. You may register for one or all of the sessions depending on your interests.
