Plants for free, or almost! In this class we will go over everything it takes to set up your own homestead nursery for woody plants and perennials. Learn to propagate plants you find in the wild, plants from friends, as well as rare and endemic plants in your region.  We will cover all things “seeds,” including how to get the trickiest seeds to germinate and grow. We will also show how to grow certain plants from cuttings and division with specific details on timing and ideal conditions.

Class breakdown: One hour of classroom time understanding how native and perennial plants are propagated, one hour of touring our nursery and gardens with specific information on propagation and seedling management, and one hour of potting up seedlings, cold-stratification of gathered seed, and digging up of roots for propagation. All class participants will go home with plants.

Dress to be outside the whole time you are with us. Please check the weather.
