"We believe each seed, like each of us, is in the world to change the world." ~ Fruition Seeds
LET'S SOW SEEDS TOGETHER!
Petra Page-Mann, co-founder of Fruition Seeds — and whimsical seed goddess — is coming back to What's Good for our second annual, hands-on, seed-sowing workshop! Come with questions and curiosity. Leave with dirt under your nails and a tray of freshly sown, easy-to-grow seeds of your choosing...either in soil blocks or eco-pots.
NEW THIS YEAR:
Petra will also be loading her van with a few garden goodies for purchase should you be in the mood to plant during Earth Day weekend. We're talking cool-season transplants fresh from her farm — delicious garden favs like spinach, broccoli, strawberries, kale, etc. Noting that for warm season transplants, you'll need to wait a few more weeks for spring to unfold and then take a delightful drive to Fruition Seeds in Naples. Petra will also be bringing additional seeds to sow and a few accessories like soil blocks should you fall in the love with the concept.
Whether you're new to gardening or steeped in experience, there is always something to learn from Petra, and from each other. So even if you joined us last year, and perhaps especially if you joined us last year, you won't want to miss this fun workshop.
All are welcome.

Thursday, April 18th, 6:00 – 7:30pm
