Try and Learn
Our Community Gardeners welcome participants into the Community Gardens to offer this series of public workshops. The Try and Learn Program will offer workshops in four main categories: Wellness, Gardening and Agriculture, Arts in the Garden, and Culinary Arts and Nutrition. Many of our classes will be taught and led by experts in the community. The workshops value curiosity, experimentation and understanding for each other, and the land.
Coming this season: cultivating culinary mushrooms in the garden, breathwalks during seasonal changes, preserving your harvest, understanding the complex life of soil, plein-air painting and more!

We are currently seeking workshop facilitators and creators - if you are interested, please fill out our "Workshop Creator + Facilitator" form below. Please allow for more time during the months of May through September to respond to your submission as we are very busy caring for the land and cultivating food and flowers!
