WINTER SOWING FOR THE GARDEN

Join our OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers for a hands-on workshop exploring winter sowing, a simple, low-cost method of starting seeds outdoors using recycled milk jugs. Participants will learn how to prepare containers, select appropriate cold-season seeds, and use soil and moisture to let nature do the work. We will also cover season extension techniques, including the use of cold frames and row covers, to help gardeners start earlier in the spring and protect crops. All materials will be provided, and participants will leave with their own planted winter sowing containers and practical knowledge they can use at home.

 

COST: $15.00
