The Northeast Organic Farming Association of New Jersey (NOFA-NJ), an organic food and farming nonprofit, is offering an Organic Vegetable Production Workshop. This full-day workshop will be taught by Al Johnson, a professional instructor and experienced organic gardener, on Saturday, March 21, from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Merrill Creek Reservoir Visitors Center, 34 Merrill Creek Road in Washington.

Whether an organic gardening "newbie" or an experienced gardener, NOFA-NJ's Organic Vegetable Production Workshop will provide time-tested production information as well as opportunities to discuss specific questions about your garden. Learn why garden placement is so important, how to improve the "less than great" New Jersey soils, and how to plan, prepare and plant a garden. Where there are gardens, there are weeds, diseases and pests, and discover how to manage these challenges using tested methodologies for every kind of crop and critter.

Pack a lunch. Registration fee is $45 for NOFA-NJ members and $55 for non-members; pre-registration is required.
