Description:
This no-till gardening course is intended for both beginner and advanced home gardeners looking to gain food security either in your yard or through container growing.
Learn the essentials of organic, no-till vegetable gardening with a special focus on composting, succession planting and winter gardening.
The Natural WayWe believe that the time proven systems in nature are the best way to grow plants. Our gardening principles teach our students to work with nature to maximize success in the garden. We teach you how to nurture soil organisms so that they in turn can feed the garden plants. We know that by fostering a bio-diverse community of plants, fungi, bacteria, and animals in the garden, we are, in a small way, mitigating the industrial and chemical damage caused to our suffering ecosystems.
This course is created with home gardeners in mind but also includes content that is relevant to market gardeners and for people who want to learn more about regenerative agriculture.
Visual LearnersOur lessons are captured on video and delivered to you. They are deliberately unscripted to give our course participants as realistic an experience as possible. Most of the footage is outdoors in real gardens so that the principles can be shown as they are discussed. This is the closest thing to in-person learning.
A Community of LearnersWe believe that learning in a community setting is conducive to creating deeper and more enduring understandings of the course content. That is why we have created a forum where our family of learners can gather to reflect on the different aspects of growing healthy food. The forum allows course participants to share photos of their gardens, reach out for advice and encouragement, and be a source of inspiration to fellow gardens. Gardeners love to share, and our discussion forum is a great way to do that.
Important note: Further to Dan’s April 2023 blog post, our instructors are taking a pause for the 2023-24 growing seasons and will no longer be answering questions on the forum, so it is presently only for member interaction. If we release a new course in early 2025, we will resume our regular Q&A Zoom meetings (March-Oct. 2025) at that time. These webinars give a face to face experience and provide the opportunity to have your questions answered.
Time permitting, we hope to resume filming in the summer of 2024 for a planned 2025 course release. All new members who join us in 2023-24 will receive full access to future course material and a year of Q&A support webinars at no further cost. For now, you will gain immediate access to our 2022 course content which is spread across four modules. An unlinked copy of the video table of contents from our 2022 members’ area is appended below.

Three experts have crafted LHG’s 2022 course curriculum:
Your primary instructor is Dan Oostenbrink, market gardener at Local Harvest.
Dan will help you gain confidence in the garden. He’s passionate about organic growing and gives a practical, no-nonsense approach for gardening that maximizes your garden’s productivity.
Andrew Couzens, a local composting expert at Terra Flora Soilworks, will supply expert guidance on soil health. He will go into detail on the best composting practices including Bokashi (anaerobic), thermophilic and vermicomposting so you can build phenomenal soil fertility, the foundation of great gardening.
Jack, an edible landscape designer and owner of Fruits and Shoots — a boutique garden nursery in Chilliwack, BC — will guide us along the way as we convert our growing space into a beautiful and productive garden.
Our 2022 course curriculum covers the principles of organic gardening in a practical, easy to understand way that will help you get higher yields of nutrient rich food with fewer weeds and with less effort. You’ll learn how to grow more food on less space so that you can eat from your garden every day of the year. Via the members’ area, you will also gain access to the recordings of 2022’s Q&A webinars (March-October).
Our aim is to equip gardeners so you can make good decisions in your own context and build confidence to stand on your own two feet for future growing seasons. The principles we share are applicable to all growing regions; they will work with nature and your indigenous biology.
When you register, you’ll gain immediate access to the members’ area which includes the 12 module videos for the 2022 course (about 5 hours of content), plus 22 video vignettes on a range of topics (about 4 hours of content). The 2022 webinar recordings also remain available.
We will not be releasing any additional course content before 2025. Dan’s market garden at Local Harvest has undergone a 5 acre expansion and his family is now intensively farming nearly 30 acres. This is demanding all his time and attention. Similarly, Jack is actively building his plant farm at Fruits and Shoots and is devoting his energy towards adding a wider variety of edible perennials and plants to attract beneficials for local gardeners.
Time permitting, we hope to release a revised, easy to follow, in-depth course early in 2025. All new members who join us in 2023-24 will receive full lifetime access to the next suite of course content at no additional cost. If we release a 2025 course, your purchase will also entitle you to receive one year of Q&A support through the growing season via our webinars (March-October).
We’re located in the Pacific Northwest, however the principles we outline are applicable to all growing zones; only the timing of the steps will differ.
I look forward to welcoming you into our community.

Andrew Couzens is a software engineer turned soil scientist.
A life long sufferer with inflammatory bowel disease, he was motivated to enter the agricultural space in an effort to “be the change” he believed was necessary to heal his own body.
Healthy plants come from healthy soil, and healthy soil comes from working with nature, not against it.
Leveraging his knowledge and experience in software engineering, he started Terra Flora Organics with a goal of helping conventional growers move from unsustainable practices that destroy soil and negatively affect the health of people and the planet, to regenerative practices that allow intensive farming whilst building soil and healing our minds and our bodies.
