Potting Shed University: Winter Seed Sowing

Tonight’s class will be taught by Missy Sanford, Master Gardeners of Greene County, President.

Whiling away the winter & dreaming of ‘Spring?’ Scouring seed catalogs and planning the perfect garden? Winter sowing involves planting seeds during the dead of winter in covered containers. They are then stored outdoors, allowing the seeds to experience the chill of winter…ice, snow, rain and all. When the temperature warms enough, the seeds germinate & start to grow. By the time the soil in the planting beds has warmed, seedlings are ready to transplant. Each person will plant a tiny greenhouse from a recycled and/or free container to take home.

$5/person per class | Register and pay at Botanical Center Gift shop
