Planting for pollinators and buying native plants can get expensive. Winter seed sowing into containers is one way to reduce that expense.
About this Event

Planting for pollinators and buying native plants can get expensive. Winter seed sowing into containers is one way to reduce that expense. In this workshop you will learn how to sow seeds in winter. A container can hold as many as 100 seedlings of a single species—seedlings which can be replanted to your garden or landscape. You will leave with two planted containers after which you can continue to expand your native plantings with more seed sowing this winter.

The workshop will be led by Ethan Skuches (Vassar College) and Carlie Graves (Wild Ones MHV).

Registration is required. This is a free, public event with limited registration.
