About this Event
Weekend Workshops is the weekend program at Arlington Garden. Workshops include volunteer projects, speaker or panel events, and small tutorials focused on topics related to our mission, regenerative gardening, and the cultural heritage of gardening.
Volunteer Projects: Volunteers work on longer-term garden projects while learning regenerative gardening and climate-appropriate landscaping.
Roots and Regeneration: Our free or low-cost guest-speaker series focused on land stewardship, urban ecology, and native ecosystems.
Tours and Tutorials: Outdoor classes and events devoted to special topics.
No prior experience is necessary for volunteer projects, but space is limited, and you are strongly encouraged to sign up for free in advance. Please bring water (there is a water bottle refill station but no drinking fountain), weather appropriate clothing, sunscreen, and gloves.

Arlington Garden is a climate-appropriate, habitat garden offering learning, inspiration, and enjoyment for all. We use only regenerative gardening techniques, which means that we harness natural processes to care for the garden. Weekend Workshop participants will acquire knowledge and skills related to regenerative gardening and learn about the natural world!
