Looking to start your own home garden or expand your small-scale operation? NOFA-NH's "Feeding the Family" Organic Gardening Workshop Series is designed for home gardeners and small-scale growers who want to develop practical skills in growing food and managing livestock. Whether you're just beginning or looking to deepen your knowledge, this series covers essential techniques for creating a thriving, self-sufficient home garden or market garden operation. While some content may apply to larger, commercial operations, the series is centered on providing knowledge that is directly applicable to smaller operations.
