Seeds are in the stores, catalogues are in the mailbox and it is time to Plan Your Garden!

If you’ve thought about having a garden but never knew where to start, this is your year. With inflation skyrocketing, prices rising, broken supply chains and store shelves sitting empty, having a home garden is more important now than it has been since the Victory Gardens of World War II.

Whether to supplement favorite foods in season, grow greens for the summer or feed your family for the year, your garden is your best friend during these uncertain times. It doesn’t matter if you live on a farm or an apartment, whether you have a huge backyard, a small balcony or something in between; gardens can be grown everywhere and by everyone.

Join us for one of our 2-hour LIVE Sessions to discover how you can plan the garden that will work for YOU. You’ll learn what questions to ask, reputable sources for your seeds, the difference between heirloom, hybrid and GMO, the incredible advantages of intensive planting over traditional row gardens, all about growing in container, how to start seeds (indoors and out), and how to do it all within your budget.

Choose one of the dates below and join us LIVE* to get all of your garden questions answered and begin Planning Your Garden today!

(*Recordings of each session will be available to watch for 10 days following the Live seminar.)
