Self-Transformation Program Participants at the Himalayan Institute
Learn and practice the art of organic gardening while participating in the Himalayan Institute Residential Program. This five-month apprenticeship provides hands-on experience and training in organic gardening techniques, as well as the full range of educational programs and community activities available to Institute residents.
We will focus on organic methods for composting, mulching, seed propagation, greenhouse techniques, plant selection, crop planning, bed preparation, soil types, planting calendars, pest and pathogen control, seed saving, irrigation, and cultivation. You will receive practical skills and knowledge to manage your own garden and to teach others the basics of organic horticulture. The program begins with a month-long Self-Transformation Program, included in the cost.
