Summer 2024: Irrigation for Vegetables, Fruits, Container Gardens

Installing micro-irrigation is one of the best ways to manage your time & resources. Well designed and installed systems keep each plant watered properly with less waste. You can spend more of your time gardening and harvesting and less of your time watering. This class will teach you everything you need to design, install, manage a low input, high-performance, automated watering system for your production gardens.
