Urban Growth Bounty 2010

Urban Growth Bounty 2010 is back and builds on last year’s success—and your feedback—by tripling the number of offerings. You’ll find more vegetable production classes, advanced chicken and bee sessions and a cornucopia of cooking courses. This year’s Bounty adds great instructors, new venues, and a wealth of information to help you grow and enjoy food that’s good for you and the planet.

View the 2010 Class Listing here. To register for a class, click on the "Register" link. This will take you to a new page that will offer more detailed information and the opportunity to register online.

If a class sells out, send an email to food@ci.portland.or.us and let us know you’re still interested. We’ll try our best to schedule new sessions if possible. And stay tuned for some additional cooking classes and an announcement of our organic garden tour at the end of July.

The Fine Print About Registration

We know. We know. The registration system we use does not allow you to sign up for multiple classes at one time. You have to sign up individually for each class. Our sincere apologies. On the bright side, there are no additional registration fees.
We know stuff happens and you may not be able to attend a class after you have registered. If you let us know one week ahead of the class, we will refund the fee to your credit card.
We don't know how soon classes may fill up. If they do, some instructors are willing to add a second session. Let us know if you want to take a class that is sold-out and we'll try to add a session.
Direct all correspondence, complaints and compliments to food@ci.portland.or.us.
