This intensive two-day workshop is perfect for the gardener who wants to get a jump-start on the season! Why wait around for the nurseries to start carrying vegetable starts when you can save money and grow your own? Best of all you can grow varieties you can’t find in stores.
Students will receive a comprehensive introduction to starting seeds indoors. We will discuss the various supplies available and help you determine what you will need to set up your home scale nursery. We will also cover seed selection, cool crops and heat crops, pricking out and potting up, hardening off plants and transplaning into the garden. Each student will have class time to practice planting techniques and will take home starts and seeds planted in class. If you have seeds you’d like to start, bring them along!
Dates: Saturday, Feb. 13th 10:00am to 2:00pm AND Sunday, Feb. 14th 10:00am to 2:00pm
Class will take place in the unheated Seattle Tilth Greenhouse so dress warmly and ready to get dirty. Bring your own mug and we’ll provide the hot water and tea.
Cost: $90 for Tilth members, $99 non-members. Advance registration and payment is required.
