Get your hands dirty and your green thumb ready! In this fun, hands-on program, kids and tweens will plant seeds in recycled pots to start their very own indoor herb garden.

Join us to dig in and create your very own indoor herb garden! In this program, participants will start by decorating and creating their plant pots out of recycled cans. After that, they'll choose from a variety of herbs, like basil, mint, and parsley, to pot in their custom-designed pots.

While planting, participants will learn the basics of herb care, including how to water, ensure proper sunlight, and encourage healthy growth. By the end of the event, each participant will leave with their decorated herb pots, ready to grow, along with all the tips and information needed to care for their new plants.

Registration is required.
