A Beginner's Guide to Planting a Spring Vegetable Garden

In this workshop you will learn everything you need to grow vegetables here in San Francisco. You will learn what grows well in the Mission, where to plant it and how to plant it. Whether you have space on a deck or in your yard, this class will cover all the basics and help prepare you for planting starts and seeds.

If you would like to learn how to grow vegetables this is the class for you, taught by Vegetable Garden Mentor Deborah Lewis. No experience necessary.

Deborah offers vegetables garden mentoring and planning services through her project, Urban Veggie Starts. Deborah has an organic garden in her Mission district home and for the past four years has worked on a small scale organic farm in Novato. This is Deborah's second workshop with Skill Exchange-- her first workshop focused on fall/winter container gardening.

TEACH, SHARE, LEARN, MAKE (& EAT) Skill exchange workshops



Mi Piace Kate is collaborating with kitchen boutique Pot + Pantry to host a series of free skill-exchange workshops, presented by local makers, chefs, gardeners, bakers, foodies and farmers. We're enthusiastic about making things by hand, but we know handcrafting skills are often undervalued and under practiced. We hope to change that by inspiring our community to use their hands, and learn new kitchen skills in a fun, social setting.

We started this project back in August, as a way to encourage self-reliance through social skill exchange. In the fall, we launched our first workshop series and after an exciting season of workshops with local makers such as Sightglass Coffee, Town Cutler, Urban Veggie Starts, Sidesaddle Kitchen and others, we're back again to share our latest lineup of workshops.

From beer brewing, raw recipes, fermentation, preserving and urban gardening, join us and learn more through our demonstrations, tastings and good conversation at Pot + Pantry. Expect Bay Area artisans and entrepreneurs from INNA Jam, Sightglass Coffee, Namu, Almanac Beer, Red Circle Tea, Revival Bar + Kitchen, Town Cutler, plus many more.

Kate Koeppel is the designer and maker behind Skill Exchange, and her other side project, Mi Piace Kate. Kate runs a small graphic design studio, and wrote her MFA design thesis on skill exchange and the environmental, cultural and economic impact of the devaluation of self-reliance.

Pot + Pantry is a small kitchen boutique in the Mission neighborhood of San Francisco, opened by Donna Suh Wageman in Fall 2010 specializing in new and gently used kitchenware.
