In addition to the talk and demonstration, you’ll receive a PDF full of valuable information discussed to look back on while you tackle your own garden this year.

This workshop is geared to beginner and intermediate growers, starting their first garden or interested in growing a better crop. There will be plenty of time for Q&A’s and note taking. Nothing is required for the workshop, you won’t be actively starting your own seeds but taking notes and learning how to do so on your own. You will also receive a list of resources to further your education and recommendation on where to shop for the items discussed.
There are no refunds or exchanges on tickets purchased. If you are unable to attend the workshop, you will still receive the information PDF and a video recording of the talk.
