Herbal Delights Series: Growing Herbal
In this laid-back evening class, participants are invited to join educator Sue Watts for some herbal planting. We’ll start seeds and make cuttings of herbs that will do well in the fall. Cilantro, parsley, chives, borage and rosemary are a few of the herbs that will delight our senses. We’ll begin with a garden walk and, as we propagate, you’ll hear folklore and the science about these wonderful herbs while drinking soothing herbal tea with a snack. Take home your own fall herb garden.
