Let’s Grow San Antonio Workshops CONDUCTED BY THE ABLDP ENVIRONMENTAL GROUP

LET’S GROW SAN ANTONIO WORKSHOPS The ABLDP Environmental Group is proposing to conduct quarterly, hands-on gardening workshops at Home Depot that teach fellow San Antonians unique and green projects. Mason Jars Herb Garden Topsy Turvy Flower Planter Salsa Garden Succulent Garden

PURPOSE AND NEED Why are we doing this? What is the point of the workshops? 2.LACK OF KNOWLEDGE—A large reason why people don’t garden is due to lack of information. 3.LACK OF NUTRITION—Over 95 percent of the people in San Antonio eat less than the recommended five servings of fruit and vegetables daily. 1.LACK OF GREEN SPACE—San Antonio is a highly urbanized area due to the ever-growing population and economic development in the region. More Gardens = More Green Space!! Our workshops will provide gardening knowledge via informative and interactive classes taught by knowledgeable staff. Our Facebook page will offer a mass library of gardening resources such as instructionals, advice, planting seasons, upcoming events, etc. Our workshops will provide direct access to a diversity of nutritionally-rich foods.

LET’S HEAR THE DETAILS!!  Quarterly workshops held at Home Depot beginning in 2015  Cheap and open to the general public!  Each workshop geared towards a specific DIY project  Participants will take home a completed project  For gardeners of all levels!

UPCOMING WORKSHOPS The first Let’s Grow San Antonio workshops that will be offered, include the following DIY projects:  1 st Workshop: Mason Jars Herb Garden  2 nd Workshop: Salsa Garden  3 rd Workshop: Topsy Turvy Flower Planter  4 th Workshop: Succulent Garden
