Program Description

Event Details

Through hands on activities children will learn how to start seeds in a translucent milk/juice jug using the method known as winter sowing. This economical way of starting seeds uses the natural elements of rain, snow, and sunlight to grow seedlings. Watch the plants emerge in springtime and then plant them in your garden.

Each participant will be given a goody bag, informational handouts and their very own winter-sown planting to take home.

Presented by volunteer Master Gardeners from the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Rockland County.
