Farm Cooking Club with Pam Silvestri: Ginger Planting
Ginger loves compost, just like us! Come plant ginger with us and learn how to build a bed for this tropical plant. You’ll see how compost is essential for both sustainable agriculture and home gardening. Then, connect with Pamela Silvestri, Staten Island Advance Food Editor, to learn different ways ginger can spice up your life. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or a curious beginner, this is a great opportunity to dig in, experience the gifts of nature, and gain valuable knowledge for your own garden.
