Planting for pollinators and buying native plants can get expensive. Winter seed sowing into containers is one way to reduce that expense. In this workshop you will learn how to sow seeds in winter. A container can hold as many as 100 seedlings of a single species—seedlings which can be replanted to your garden or landscape. You will leave with two planted containers after which you can continue to expand your native plantings with more seed sowing this winter.

The workshop will be facilitated by Angela Sisson from Wild Ones Mid-Hudson Valley. She has been helping people plant pollinator friendly gardens, including the pollinator garden at the library. Angela has an ecological landscape design degree and has been using native plants in the landscape for over two decades.

Registration required. $20 includes all materials for two containers.
