Winter sowing is a wonderful way to expand our native plant gardens. In this timely workshop, participants will learn how to collect, prepare, and sow native plant seeds for Winter propagation as well as how to care for them from seedling to soil.
Presenter Chris Migliaccio will bring and demonstrate use of all relevant materials and will have seeds of up to a dozen straight native species to give away (as supplies last). Participants who wish to bring seeds home should bring a Sharpie (or similar marker) and several sealable plastic snack-size bags or letter-size envelopes. We will have a few extras on hand if you forget.
In lieu of printed handouts, a PDF file with photos and text describing the protocals and setup will be shared digitally with all registered participants the day after the workshop. We will also post the PDF to our chapter website on the “Topics” page.
