Growing Microgreens Workshop

Join us for a hands-on workshop and learn how to grow microgreens from seed to harvest. Participants will have the opportunity to plant their very own tray of microgreens, with guidance provided throughout the entire process. At the end of the workshop, you'll take home your freshly planted microgreens! Led by Owen Chase of Just for Fun Farms.
