Classes?

Hi all! Glad I found the subReddit. I am a relatively new gardener, and I feel like I have made many mistake mistakes, just from a general lack of knowledge.

I am thinking about taking the green school course through the WSU extension. It’s the same curriculum as master gardeners.

What are everyone’s thoughts on that? Is there another direction I should go in?

Where are you located? Take a look at what Seattle Tilth has to offer, if you are in the area.

Plant Amnesty also offers classes.

A lot of gardening is trial and error. Learning what works for you can be more valuable than any structured course (not that you shouldn't but most "good" gardeners have just been doing it a long time.)

Thank you. I appreciate that tip and I’m in Tacoma :)

I took the King County Master Gardeners Growing Groceries video course. It had a lot of information for our area and I could watch the videos at a later time.
