Learn from the experts on how to get a head start on your garden this year with winter seed starting!

Native plants are critical to supporting birds, butterflies, bees and other pollinators, but they can be expensive! Join Marlene Smith, president of Wild Ones Chesapeake Bay, and Molly Moore, president of Southern Maryland Audubon, as they introduce participants to the 10 simple steps to winter sowing. Learn how to grow your own natives from seeds, in milk jugs in the dead of winter. In this in-person workshop, you’ll seed your own containers to take home. We will have milk jugs available, along with all other supplies, including seeds. Please bring at least one clean milk jug (translucent, not white) to help replenish our supplies to keep these workshops going. Workshop is free and open to all. Registration required.

This program is made possible with support from Wild Ones Chesapeake Bay, Southern Maryland Audubon, and Friends of St. Clements Bay.

Join us for our bi-monthly Garden Chat with a presentation by Lynne Wheeler, Wild Ones Chesapeake Bay Membership Chair, and Marlene Smith, Wild Ones Chesapeake Bay President. Lynne and Marlene will introduce you to seed sowing & propagation to grow your own native plants from seed. They will include some of their own tried-and-true methods to inspire you this growing season. Learn how easy and fun it is propagating natives from seed! 

All Wild Ones members are welcome to attend and invite a guest!
