Seed Starting: The basics of taking seed to seedling

Register now!

With the growing season approaching, thinking about starting seeds is often the first step. While many plants grow in different ways, most seed starting can be accomplished with some basic strategy and techniques. In this workshop we will go over everything you need to know, and the materials you want to have to successfully start your own seeds. Bring any questions you might have, and any special seeds you may want to swap or share!

This workshop takes place in a shared Intervale Greenhouse where many of the Farmers of the Intervale will be hard at work starting seeds of their own. We will meet in the first dirt parking lot on Intervale Road past the McNeil Generating Station.

This workshop is facilitated by Nathan Lake, Field and Farm Coordinator at the Intervale Center. A decade ago, Nathan began to learn farming at the Green String Institute in California and has been working in agriculture ever since. He aspires to help others to develop relationships with/ learn to grow plants on their own, through projects such as The People’s Farm at the Intervale Center.

Thanks to our season underwriters, City Market and Gardener’s Supply Company, for making events like these possible!
