Good Garden Talks: Winter Sowing

Join Summit Metro Parks, Let's Grow Akron, and OSU Extension for an evening workshop on winter sowing—a gardening technique perfect for getting a head start on spring. You'll learn how to plant seeds outdoors in specially vented containers, which allows seedlings to develop naturally with the seasons. This method works especially well for hardy plant varieties that thrive when started this way. This program is geared toward adults interested in expanding their gardening skills. The session runs for about an hour and a half, giving you time to understand the basics and ask questions. For more information before you come, feel free to contact the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 (they're open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.).
