Winter may seem like a time when gardening is put on hold. However, this season offers a unique opportunity to engage in winter sowing—a method that harnesses the cold to jumpstart the growing process.
What is Winter Sowing?
Winter sowing is a technique where seeds are planted in containers and left outside during the winter months. The seeds undergo a natural stratification process, where the fluctuating temperatures and moisture conditions simulate the conditions of spring. By the time spring arrives, the seeds have already begun to germinate, giving them a head start and often resulting in stronger, more resilient plants.
Event Highlights:
We will learn the ins and outs of winter sowing with this hands-on workshop. Topics will include selecting appropriate seeds, preparing containers, and understanding the benefits of cold stratification.
- We’ll have a selection of Native seeds available for you to try!
- Get creative and make your own winter sowing containers. We’ll provide materials and guidance on how to repurpose everyday items into effective sowing tools.
Get a jumpstart on next spring and join us for this fun event!
