🌱Take seven Master Gardeners who love native plants and put them in a room with a bunch of engaged gardeners, some growing medium and a bunch of old milk jugs, and you’ll get a lot of fun and the potential for hundreds of new native plants in our city. They will be beautiful and the wildlife will thank us. 

Thank you @knoxgarden for sharing the Carriage House with us, and for joining in. 💚

To everyone who attended, thank you for your enthusiasm and great questions. We look forward to seeing you again in the spring. 

Now is a great time to try winter seed sowing for an abundance of plants later in the year. 🌱🌱
