About this Event

Get started growing herbs at home with The Patio Farmer this spring! Join Farmer Erin for an interactive class and planting session on Saturday, May 11 as the South End Market kicks off the summer season! Farmer Erin, Owner of The Patio Farmer, will share tips and information on how to grow herbs at home with success, no matter what size space you have. We will cover everything from sunlight to soil to harvesting in this class, plus have time to answer all your burning questions for growing food at home.

You'll have a chance to plant your very own herbs to take home with you! Be sure to "bring your own pot" (noting specifications below) and Farmer Erin will supply soil, seeds, seedlings, and plant tags for planting.

Farmer Erin will also be doing a planting demonstration during class which will be "raffled" off to attendees!
