Container Gardening

Gardening helps us understand what we eat, encourages us to grow what we eat, helps save money, and aids in stress relief. The workshop will cover seed starting, planning a garden, planting, harvesting, and seed saving of various seeds. You will learn how to garden and plant seeds such as micro-greens, spinach, kale, lettuce, and herbs in a 1-gallon plant grow bag.

*Please bring gardening gloves if you have them and we will have extra gloves at the workshop as well.
