Join the Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden for Learn on Saturdays, a weekly educational lecture series presented by experts from across the state of Iowa. Session begins at 10:30 am.
Winter is the best time to dream big about your home garden, and this winter, Learn on Saturdays is back with a new format and a great line up! Growing the Gardener in You is the theme for Learn on Saturdays 2025 at the Botanical Garden. Eight fantastic experts over eight Saturday mornings will help you grow your gardening skills, learn sustainable gardening techniques, add more eco-friendly practices, and keep your garden adapting to changing Iowa conditions. Growing as a gardener during the winter will result in amazing home gardens in the summer. Come learn with us!
Learn on Saturdays 2025 is funded by the Resource Enhancement and Protection Conservations Education Program (REAP CEP) and will improve the toolkit of all Iowa’s gardeners and their efforts to plant a more beautiful world.
