Gardening time is here with Scott Valley Feed

by Renee on March 5, 2010

The Scott Valley Feed stores in Yreka and Greenview are feeling the spring spirit with a number of classes coming up in March. They’ve got four programs that will run through the summer and into the fall. Go visit these fine folks and take their classes to learn more about a number of gardening and homesteading skills, kids and the outdoors and cooking. And, it’s that time of year when you can stop in to see the baby chicks and listen to their soft peeping. Beware – once you see them, you’ll want to take some home.

This is soooo cool Renee! I don’t have a green thumb at all (at least, not since my youth) and this inspires me to take a class now. I’ve been wanting to start a garden but haven’t the faintest idea where to start but now I do! THANK YOU!

Thanks for posting all this great info. Reminds me of my teen years reading Carla Emery’s Old Fashioned Recipe Book. She was my mentor in that I listened to her radio broadcasts while I cleaned birdcages and kitten cages at the local pet shop where I worked. This kind of work reminds me of getting back to basics. Thanks for helping it become vital here in Siskiyou Co too! Thank goodness for the farms.
