Brush Up on Your Growing Skills With a Beginner Gardener Workshop Series From GrowNYC

If your garden dreams are bigger than your actual green skillset, a series of workshops aimed at the beginner gardener may help you gain some confidence before you pull on those garden gloves.

From Tuesday, May 31 to Friday, June 3, GrowNYC is offering four interactive online workshops to inspire good gardening habits. Basics like the types of gardens to consider and guidance on monthly tasks will be covered as well as the health and community building benefits of gardening. Special speakers include horticultural therapist Joanne D’Auria and NYCHA community garden founders Chantel Kemp and DK Kinard.

The virtual workshops are free, but registration is required. For more information, visit the event page online.
