Event details:

Join volunteers from the Walden Community Garden for this hand-on workshop that will give you the information and supplies you need to get a jump on growing plants for your garden this spring. Now is a great time to start seeds indoors, especially plants like tomatoes, peppers, herbs, broccoli, onions, and of course flowers! 

In this workshop, we’ll share useful tips and techniques for seed starting. All supplies will be provided, including seeds, but you are welcome to bring in your own seeds to start as well. You will also learn about: 

• our network of community gardens across our city, and some highlights about the past and current projects at the Walden Community Garden 

• why we start seeds indoors, choosing appropriate seeds for your garden and an easy schedule to start seeds for our local hardiness zone 
• the supplies you need for starting seeds indoors  
• planting and caring for your seedlings 
• what to do when it's time to plant outside 
• …anything else you want to know about seed starting! 

Each workshop participant will take home a few pots with their seeds planted, a handout on seed-starting tips and online resources, and a few extra seeds to start at home. 

No registration required, drop in anytime!
