Ring in the official start of summer and discover the joy of growing unusual summer edibles in our hands-on container gardening workshop, led by local horticulturist and Foodscape expert Brie Arthur! In this interactive session, you'll learn how to cultivate unique crops like ginger, turmeric, and rice, as well as creative combinations using traditional vegetables, vibrant foliage plants, and beautiful flowers. Brie will guide you through choosing the right containers, soil, and care techniques to grow these fascinating plants in small spaces.
