Adults and children 10+ with an adult are welcome!
Join San Diego Craft Collective’s Organic Garden workshop each month and learn how to grow your own organic fresh fruits, herbs and vegetables, seed-saving, compost, planting, plus all the benefits of eating healthy, being outdoors and giving back green space to our planet. In this class, Instructor Mia Vaughnes teaches gardening techniques and beyond. We welcome all families, friends and adults to join in the fun!
Our Organic Garden was an opportunity for us to transform an under-utilized plot of land outside our Liberty Station studio into a living, learning lab! Our Edible & Pollinator Garden is a perfect place to share with the community how gardening in a small space can be quite abundant. We look forward to teaching children and adults about the craft of gardening and raising awareness of plants that supply us food.

Free for active duty military. Just email us to RSVP and be sure to show us your ID.


If you are military, this club is free for you. Please email us to register.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Mia Vaughnes was raised by a growing and foraging family. She picked wild berries and asparagus with her mother as a child.  This shared pastime served as a strong foundation for their close relationship. In 1987 Mia started an organic food cart at UCSD supporting local organic farmers.  There was just a handful at the time, but she was one of the early pioneers who taught students the importance of eating “organic” at a time when the word was not yet in most people’s consciousness. Mia is the co-founder of Good Neighbor Gardens, a company who farms yards and schools in San Diego homes to deliver organic, locally grown, pesticide-free produce through a CSA model. Our space-efficient, eco-friendly and community minded operation is one from which everyone stands to benefit.
