Upcoming Gardening Class
Sustainable Kitchen Gardening: Growing Green at Walking Lightly in Ferndale
Join us for an Intro to Kitchen Gardening class on Sunday March 16th as we focus on growing all things green for fall! Microgreens, salad greens, and herbs
This workshop is perfect for anyone who:
- wants to learn how to start growing food at home but doesn’t know where to start
- is looking for ways to be a bit more sustainable in their day to day
You’re in luck 😉 ☘️ herbs and greens are the BEST place to start when you are learning how to grow your own homegrown ingredients. They require little space, light, and know-how from you. These also just so happen to be the most unsustainable to purchase - they often come in plastic clamshells and are shipped across the country.
So let’s come together set you up for success to grow your own!
What we're going to cover:
- How to reuse a glass jar to grow your own microgreen sprouts
- Basics of setup and harvesting of Salad Greens
- Basics of setup and harvesting herb gardens
Basic ticket includes workshop admission and sprouts growing supplies.
Upgrade your ticket to create your own salad and herb container during the workshop - were planting dill, cilantro, and lettuce.
