Winter Seed Sow at Verrill Farm (Session 1), All Ages

Sunday, January 121:00—2:00 PMOther

Save the date for our third annual Winter Seed Sow Workshop hosted by Verrill Farm (11 Wheeler Road, Concord) and register for your spot! In this free workshop, led by Isabel Bailey of the Concord Pollinator Health Committee, we will learn how to sow seeds into milk jugs for easy, outdoor, over-wintering germination of native pollinator-supporting plants. To accommodate more people, we will offer demonstrations at 1 and 2:30. After attending a demonstration, participants will prepare the growing containers and plant seeds. Plan to browse our resource table and learn about plans for a local Pollinator Pathway, too!

What to bring:

  • Clean, translucent, and empty gallon jugs if you have them. Remove the cap. (Additional jugs will be provided.)
  • Gardening gloves (if desired)
  • Scissors. (The workshop will provide some to share.)
  • Duct Tape (we will have rolls circulating, too.)
  • Cardboard box, tray, or other container to take home jugs (We have some to share.)
  • Description of area where you'll transplant your seedlings (shade, sun, partial sun/shade)

Families welcome (please register total number of attendees!)
