OPEN SILO SKILL SHARE

Open Silo Skill Share is a program to organize and facilitate urban agriculture classes, taught by YOU: expert farmers, gardeners, and organizers. Our vision is to empower a broad field of instructors and provide a platform for them to share knowledge, experiences, skills and mistakes so that urban agriculture can thrive in Southern California. Open Silo will help instructors develop their curriculum, find a venue, collect tickets, and make sure you get paid!
