Did you know that damp, overcast days are GREAT for transplanting seedlings?

That’s just one of the many great things we learned today in our container gardening workshop. And despite the chill, we had fun and everyone went home with a veggies and a smile.

Don’t worry if you missed today’s workshop, the growing season has just begun. Stay tuned!

And a special thank you to Kamaar for being such a great instructor 🍅🥬🫑
