During the summer, Sage Garden Herbs nursery (3410 St. Mary's Rd.) hosts affordable classes on indoor & outdoor gardening. They sell Eco Tea fertilizer and Eco-lawn grass seed. It's a pleasant, small, organic nursery to visit. They don't sell trees.
Urban Eatin' Gardeners' Co-op (phone 204-770-2204) can provide gardening assistance or full gardening service--planning, constructing, gardening.
Red Wriggler Haven (204-275-0253) provides vermicomposting (indoor worm composting) expertise. The proprietors, Marilyn & Bruce, suggest that for cold climates, vermicomposting is the most appropriate approach to household waste reduction. In April, they offer a class at Sage Garden Herbs as well.
