Description

Ever walk into a garden center with the best of intentions only to feel overwhelmed by the options and information, (or lack thereof)? Our planting workshop is designed to solve just that. With prime plant options and a combined knowledge of over 85 years in the industry, horticultural rockstars Adam Yakabuskie and Larry Zaleschuck deliver a curated experience. Offered exclusively while the gettins good, the dates below are our only planting workingshops planned. This is undoubtably an energetic planting workshop with limitless Q&A's and even door prizes!
