Want to learn how to create your own prairie garden? From seed cleaning and planting to weed control and using for education, you will learn a new skill every month in this DIY series. The topic for December will be "Seed Stratification." Some prairie seeds require cold periods or "roughing up" before they grow. In this session, learn techniques to scarify, stratify and prepare your seed for spring.

These programs are for aspiring gardeners of all ages and experience. Individuals and groups are welcome! Please wear comfortable clothing for indoors and outdoors!  A one hour program will be held each month until July of 2018.
