You'll learn some simple techniques from Rhiannon Johnson, including starting plants indoors and in the garden, tailored to your space. Be rewarded with the taste of freshly grown veggies this season! We'll have a community seed library present - pick up some free seeds for your garden, swap or donate seeds.
